I ran across this summer reading challenge and found it interesting.
Read 10 books by September 21.
1 classic you've never read but always meant to
1book you've read and always wanted to reread but haven't yet
at least one book featured on AuthorsNow!
1 book outside of genres you usually read
1 "impulse" book that chatches your eye during the summer
5 others of your choosing
My choices so far:
Classic: Hmmm...I don't know which one to choose there are so many I never read I have to ponder this one
Reread: A Tale of Two Cities
Authors Now!: The Forests of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan (I brought this one home from school for my summer read)
Outside my genre: Dog on It (mystery recommended twice by a teacher at school and I'm not a mystery reader at all)
Impulse book: Many of my bookstore buys are impulses, so I don't know what I'll count
Others:
The Mad Ones (saw it on Jon Stewart decided I must have)
Gentlemen--came in the new books at school, so I brought it home for the summer
Guns Germs & Steel--I started this when I thought I'd be teaching world history next year now I need to finish it
Thirteen Reasons Why--the kids at school love this one and my niece read it in one night.
Year of Wonders--I've read other books by this author and liked them. I've already started this one.
