Fall Into Reading Challenge

Once again it is that time of year.  You know, the time when you dust off all of those books you've been hoping to get to, create a list, and begin reading them.  Katrina at Callapidder Days has once again set up this wonderful challenge.  It is one of two that I participate in each year.  This is a laid  back challenge.  It is simple.  Just create a list of books you would like to read and start reading.  It starts September 22 and ends December 21st.  You create a post of your book goals and then at the end create a post letting everyone know how you did.  In the Spring I had a  super long list and then was unable to get to them all. With new duties at school I have created a reasonable list and will add to it as I am able.  So let the fun begin.  Below is my list of books for this challenge. I am sure I will be adding books to the list as I go.

  4. Hi Sandra! I haven't read any of the books on your list, but will have to look into some of them, since I'm always looking for good middle grade / YA books to recommend to my son. As usual, looks like lots of variety to keep you busy! Enjoy your fall reading!
