Even though I was not terribly successful with my autumn reading challenge, I still like the idea of putting some books on my "to read stack" that have been on my shelves for way too long. So, trying to keep in mind the busy-ness of the first part of the challenge calendar, here's what I have pulled off the shelves and put on my nightstand for the next three months:
Two books have to be named later, because they will be the January and February books for my book group, the Inkblots. We'll decide on our reading list at our December meeting, and I'll know what they'll be after that. So, for now, I'll just leave a spot for them.
January Inkblot book
February Inkblot book
Ballad of the White Horse by G.K. Chesterton
The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot
The Late George Apley by John P. Marquand
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
Grand Opening by Jon Hassler
The Robe by Lloyd Douglas
Cheerfulness Breaks In by Angela Thirkell
and
Delta Wedding by Eudora Welty
Oh, and I got a new Georgette Heyer book from Amazon (hey, I had to add $5 to qualify for free shipping didn't I?) so I imagine that it will be read during the time period, even if it isn't on the list.
