2012 Book List

Every year the fam and I set goals for the new year.  I also set a book list of books I want to read.  I enjoy the accountability of a list.  I'm a list nerd.  I admit it...
I tend to gravitate toward fiction; non-fiction seems so painful to me at times...but I have added some to my list. 


Non-Fiction
Have a New Kid by Friday 12/12
11 Secrets to Getting Published 2/12
Fox's Book of Martyrs
Heaven at Home 1/12
Made to Crave
Letters from Lillian
Kisses from Katie
Loving God With All Your Mind 10/12
Loving the Little Years: Motherhood in the Trenches 9/12
Fiction
Screwtape Letters
I Still Dream About You 10/12
Fly Away Home
The Glass Castle
A Northern Light 4/12
The Shack (re-read) 3/12
The Best of Me (re-read)
 The Line 3/12
The Invention of Hugo Cabret 3/12
Freak the Mighty 10/12
Michael Vey Prisoner of Cell 25 11/12

Karen Kingsbury Books:
Loving 4/12
Ever After 6/12
Even Now5/12
Where Yesterday Lives
Coming Home (I'm not sure if I'll read this one or not...I love her books, but one thing that bugs me is all the re-telling she does for the people who haven't read the particular series that books is apart of.  I have skipped chapters of her books because of the repetition.  I read reviews on this one and from what I've read 3/4 of the book is a recap of the 15 Baxter books before it.  I was bummed out.)

Well my book list was quite the disappointment. I don't really have a reason as to why I didn't complete my list...I just didn't. Very unusual for me.  But I promised myself that I wouldn't beat myself up over it. Just try again in 2013!  No. Big.
