I lied.
I read 115 books in 2009...though a few were "re-reads". This year, I'm going to let you all know (once a week or so) what I've been reading. Please know that I occassionally read books that inspire intelligent thought. But most of the time - it's chick lit. Don't say I didn't warn ya! :-)

WHOA! Seriously hun, I wish I could recommend something but you have read SO many! I am way impressed! I love to read but I only got through maybe 20 last year. (In my own little world 20 is a lot! Lol!)
ReplyDeleteIf I see any new ones I think you might like I'll send you a message but wow! Go ahead!!
p.s. have a fabulous weekend!! xoxo
I love how you listed all of your books for 2009. I'm an avid reader and can't remember all the books that I've read in 2009 but I have made it a goal to read and finish at least 2 books or more a month for this year. One that I read last year that I loved is Same Kind of Different as Me. (Forgive me for not remembering the authors names.) That was one I could read over again. Right now, I'm reading the Help so that will go on my 2010 list. I like books in all areas. Some of the ones that you've listed, I've read but quite a few, I haven't.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty big list! I wish I had written down all of the ones that I read but now I honestly can't remember all of them off of the top of my head, that's why I only listed my faves on my blog.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, did you just love the Sookie Stackhouse series? It's one of my all time favorites. And the House of Night series is pretty good too, I'm on a waiting list at the library for the newest one.
I'm proud to be on your list and in such good company! I hope you enjoyed my book (Heart in the Right Place). And I hope you're having an easier time of this cold snap than I am. I just had an exploding water pipe and now I have no water for the second time in a week. : ) Your New Buddy, Carolyn
ReplyDeleteI am so excited that you read as much as I do! Reading is so good for the soul. Love your book choices. We should compare our to-read list.
ReplyDeletewowza!! I love to read but school doesn't afford me much time to do extra reading anymore!
ReplyDeletewhat was your favorite book out of those 115?
Wow you really must like to read. I am lucky if I read 10 books in 2009! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the Twilight books but the House of Night series in closing in too.
Wow, you really do read a lot! I've read several of those, but I'm going to have to check out a few of the other titles.
ReplyDeleteLoving the House of Night Series...I am finishing up Tempted!
ReplyDeleteHave you read the Dark Tower series from Stephen King?? How about The Stand by SK?? Needless to say I am a big Stephen Kin gfan...;-)
Wait. You keep a list of all the books you're reading? I should do that too! I just read The Art of Racing in the Rain. NEVER would have picked that up, but Jimmy gave it to me for Christmas. I liked it!
ReplyDeleteThere's a series of books I recently discovered that I absolutely love and you might want to check into. By Nancy Thayer... The Hot Flash Club. Love them!!!!
Justine :o )
That's an impressive list! I read quite a few of them too. And I am delighted to see my debut novel LOVE IS A FOUR-LEGGED WORD there.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Okay I was totally going to send you an email I wanted to pick your brain on the House of Night series as you are the only person I know who has read it, but I can't find your email address on here anywhere. If you want send me an email at jamontgomery77@yahoo.com so I can email you back.
ReplyDeleteMy Mom reads a lot too. One of her favorite authors it Terri Blackstock and she would recommend any of her books to you. I will tell her to get some titles for you and let you know what they are....she is having memory problems right now for some reason!
ReplyDeleteSnuggles,
Twix
Wow what a great list good luck in reading them. I have number 6 on my list to read too.
ReplyDeleteWow - what a list! I'm trying to list the books I want to read by month. I want to read books in several different areas of interest, so hope I'll be able to keep up!
ReplyDeleteWowza!! That's alot. I saw that you read The Lovely Bones. Do you want to see it with me? I read it too.
ReplyDeleteWow. That is so awesome! I love that you are a voracious reader! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you and I like to read a lot of the same stuff! I see many of my favorite authors in there. I'll have to print out your list and see if I can find any new favorite authors this year.
ReplyDeleteWow! You must be a crazy speed reader. Is it ever hard to find new books for you?
ReplyDeleteWOW!! I love to read but do not make the time. Your list has inspired me!
