Reading through the Fall


Katrina at Callapidder Days has a challenged everyone to make some new reading goals for this fall. Seeing as my Thankful Sunday this week included some books I read a really long time ago, I decided it's a good time to actually read a few new books. I'm only picking 5 books, because I fall asleep at night these days instead of staying up until I'm finished with a book. There were days I'd start a good sized book after dinner and be finished by morning. But one look in the mirror at what a lack of sleep does to woman in her late 30's can make a girl get to bed early.

Enough said!


Here are my choices for this fall:



The Last Empress by Anchee Min
Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search For Everything Across Italy, Indian and Indonesia
by Elizabeth Gilbert
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan: A Novel by Lisa See
Middlesex: A Novel by Jeffrey Eugenides
The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Okay, so that means I need to log off, throw dinner in the oven and read while it's cooking!

Middlesex was recommended to me a while back and you reminded me to put that on my "check it out" list!

Happy Reading!

I know what you mean about the sleep thing. I used to stay up all night reading... but sadly, that is no longer an option! Thanks for being part of Fall into Reading!
