I've started and deleted this book blog about 10 times, so this time, I'm going to start simple. Because this is the busiest time of year for me and I barely have time to walk my dog or feed myself, I've decided that it is the perfect time to start a book challenge. Makes sense, right?? I will attempt to read a book a week from now until.... TBA. At least a month. Rules: has to be a book. Has to be over 100 pages long. If I don't finish the book in a week... uh. Suggestions welcome? I'll do something odious (like do the dishes?) and post the proof here. Most of the books Im going to read are books that I've been wanting to read but have never found the time. I'll post thoughts along the way and then do a review at the end. My first book: The Red Tent by Anita Diamant. I've heard good, but vague things about this book. Something about history, something about feminism and I thought, hey, I like history and I like feminism....sooo.... Have you read it? Thoughts? Any thing I should keep an eye out for? I'll start the challenge on Friday and will hopefully have the book in my possession by then. Have any suggestions for books I should add to my list? Think more classic literature rather than contemporary as I'd like to seem intellectual here... Is there a book that you cannot have imagine life without? I have some of those. His Dark Materials series...Harry Potter...East of Eden.... Let me know some of yours and I will add it to the list. Wish me luck! (Seriously, I'm going to need it.)
P.S. If we're facebook friends, feel free to leave comments and suggests there
