Happy 1st day of Spring!!! I know I am so excited for the weather to get warmer, the flowers to start blooming and....I'm excited to do some reading!! Reading?? Yes, you read that right, READING!!!
I ran across the Spring Reading Thing 2009 and couldn't wait for March 20 to come around so I could join. So, the gist of what we do is create a list of books and/or a goal for reading this Spring. Then, come the first of summer (June 20) and share about our goal and reading experience. For me, what I want to read changes monthly, no....weekly, no....daily, yup daily. So, I will be updating you every once in awhile as to the changes or additions or completions in my list. I think this would be so much easier for me and my randomness.
So, my goals for this Spring Reading Thing (as of this week) is:
- Finish the Twilight Series - I still have book 3 and 4 to go
- Participate in Books Blogs Brownies
- Finish Reading What's on my Nightstand
- Read and do a review for Rachel's Tears
- Get caught up on daily Bible readings
- Finish 1 more book with Jeremy
- Read 2 classics (part of my 101 challenge) For this, I'm thinking Little Women by Louisa May Alcott and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
- Read 2 banned books (part of my 101 challenge) For this, I'm thinking Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain and Lord of the Flies by William Golding
- Read my past National Geographic and Time
I think that's a pretty good start for a list for now, I don't want to overwhelm myself. Check back with me weekly (for now, I think it might be on Monday's) to see how I'm doing. If you want to join Katrina and her Spring Reading Thing 2009 check out Callapidder Days ( I love that blog name!!)
Happy Reading!!

I love your list! I still have to finish the Twilight series, too. Guess I'd better add those - I'd forgotten! (see, my list changes moment by moment, too!)
I think that is a great list! Have fun with your challenge!
I still haven't started the Twilight series, but I have the first one on my shelf and I know I'll get to it eventually. I read Lord of the Flies in high school and I'd really like to revisit it someday. Thanks so much for being part of Spring Reading Thing '09!
Good luck with your Spring reading goals.
Looks like a great list. I too have books 3 and 4 of the Twilight Series to read.
I read the entire Twilight series in four days, they were pretty entertaining, good luck with your list.
