I'm entering a low-pressure book challenge for spring and love that I can set my own realistic or unrealistic expectations as to how many books I can read during the time period given. The challenge runs from March 20 - June 20 (Spring) and with all that's going on in my life lately, I hope I can manage to finish the books on time.
The Spring Reading Thing 2011 is hosted by Katrina at Callapidder Days and if you'd like to join in the fun, check out the rules here.
Here's my (un)realistic list of books that I plan to read for the challenge:
Outtakes From A Marriage by Ann Leary
An Object of Beauty by Steve Martin
An Italian Affair by Laura Fraser
Falling Man by Don DeLillo
I know it's only 4 books in 3 months time, but I seriously hope I can pull it off. I'm doing a kitchen reno, have 2 boys under 5 and will be hosting 3 birthday parties during this time period. I think finishing 4 is unrealistic, but I like to set the bar high.
I really wish I read more too. I do most of my book reading in the summer when we are at my inlaws shorehouse.
ReplyDeleteIt does sound like you'll have plenty to keep you busy this spring. Hope you're able to fit in lots of enjoyable reading, too! Thanks for being part of the challenge!
