read all the books on my list

I’m slowly working my way through this. I’ve decided to attempt reading a book for 30 minutes every night before bed. That way, I can unwind and work on the goal at the same time. Wish me luck!

10) The True Blood Series (Book 2 through 5?)

But started another. I am now reading My Latest Grievance By Elinor Lipman. It’s good so far!

I finished reading the first book in the Sookie Stackhouse series and I am taking a break from that to read Dear American Airlines By Jonathan Miles. It’s off to a slow start but I won’t give up that easily!

American Wife was a spectacular book. I really enjoyed it. My next book is the first in the Sookie Stackhouse series, Dead until Dark by Charlaine Harris.

American Wife is a great book so far. Curtis Sittenfeld never lets me down :) I can’t wait to see how it ends and to start another book on the list!

13) American Wife (Currently Reading)
By Curtis Sittenfield

I just finished I Know This Much Is True By Wally Lamb. I would recommend this book to anyone. It was a long book but so worth the read.

I just finished reading 100%:110 Strategies For Feeling Great Everyday! By Pat Croce. I love this book because it plays off of the power of positive thinking. I read it in a couple hours and it’s so motivating! I read his other book too and it’s great. I would love to meet him in person. Another book off the list :)

American Wife by Curtis Sittenfield. I loved her other books so I am excited to read this one :)

I decided to edit my list and take off some books that I’ve either read or lost interest. They aren’t in any particular order.
