Reading List #2 - FINISHED!

In January, for the first time ever, I tried reading from a list. I selected 20 titles from the YAL conference I attended and read all but one (which I attempted and abandoned, because I firmly believe time should not be wasted on a bad book). I read 25 books in just over six months. I LOVED reading from a list and decided to do it again, so in July I selected 10 more titles. I finished last week!

List progress:
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson review here
The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot review here
Parenting with Love & Logic by Jim Fey
Silver Star Jeannette Walls review here
Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger review here
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak review here
Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck review here
Shepherding a Child's Heart by Tedd Tripp review here
Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum review here
Mocking Jay by Suzanne Collins review here

I am calling this finished even though I didn't read Parenting with Love & Logic because I put this on my list thinking I was going to be taking that class at church. Instead, I took a class on being a better wife. It was an excellent investment of my time, though I do hope to take the parenting class and read the book some time in the near future.

I also read three titles which weren't on my list:
The Skinny Rules by Bob Harper (review here)
The Gurnsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Borrows (review here)
If I Stay by Gayle Forman (review here)

That's 12 books in 5 months. Not as good as the first half of the year, but I'll take it!
