Fall Into Reading



Katrina from Callapidder Days is hosting Fall Into Reading. I thought it was a great idea so I joined.

Before I began really pondering on my list I decided that it would have to be books that I own which I haven't gotten around to reading. And let me tell you it's been very hard to pick without looking at the new releases.

Non-Fiction:

Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser

The Lonely Empress: Elizabeth of Austria by Joan Haslip

Fiction:

The Persian Pickle Club by Sandra Dallas

The Gospel According to Jesus Christ by Jose Saramago

Blindness by Jose Saramago

Wicked by Gregory Maguire

The Lusiads by Luis de Camoes (at least I can brag that I read both in Portuguese and in English)

The Ex, Why and Me by Susanna Carr

Ah yes, reading the books I already have without buying new ones is always a challenge for me! (And it's one I usually fail at -- I just can't resist those new books!) Thanks for being part of the reading challenge. Enjoy your books!

Leya, I did good on my list too...I had most already in the TBR except for the first 2 that come out on Tuesday.

I think you're the first one I've seen who's also reading The Persian Pickle Club! =) My Aunt described it to me a little bit, and I'm excited to read that one! I'll be watching to see if you post a review on that.

If you find the secret to reading books you already have without buying new ones, please let me know.......my husband cringes everytime we go near a bookstore LOL

I just love books.

Great list, The Persian Pickle Club looks interesting.
