Katrina over at Callapidder Days is hosting a Spring Reading Thing for 2008. I'm very excited since this is my first time to participate! If you want to join, go ahead and click the above link and head on over. We're in for a lot of fun and a lot of reading.
Now for my picks...I have chosen to focus on Historical Fiction. I had the idea that I want to buy a big world map and start pin pointing the places that I read about. This will enable me to learn more about the particular part of history that I'm reading, as well as have a neat visual of all the places I have "visited." So, without further ado, here is my list:
To Finish:
Song Yet Sung by: James McBride
Kidnapped by: Jan Burke (not historical fiction, but I still need to finish it)
The Historian by: Elizabeth Kostova
To Read:
Mary by: Janis Cooke Newman
The House of Seven Gables by: Nathaniel Hawthorne
The History of Love by: Nicole Krauss
Bryson City Tales by: Walt Larimore
Candle In the Darkness by: Lynn Austin
You Remind Me of Me by: Dan Chaon
Black Cross by: Greg Iles
I am thoroughly looking forward to this list of titles and can't wait to start reviewing them here also.
Happy Reading!
