It is solely a result of me having no self control over bringing books home from the library. And I have a small rebel streak that just refused to conform to predetermined lists. <br /><br />http://burroughstribe.com/2016/01/15/one-more-book-please/<br /><br />Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00183329507570599440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24309747.post-47640232623626681062016-01-16T22:20:51.034-07:002016-01-16T22:20:51.034-07:00Sharon, I would love to hear about your unofficial...Sharon, I would love to hear about your unofficial challenge!<br /><br />My dad likes McCullough's books, and everyone who reads biographies seems to like his. It's really not my genre, but I'm trying to be more well-rounded in my reading.Beth Hollmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795254887495671167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24309747.post-53418735616543004752016-01-16T19:37:30.459-07:002016-01-16T19:37:30.459-07:00My daughter reads David McCullough's books for...My daughter reads David McCullough's books for pleasure, lol. <br /><br />I am jealous of your Facebook book groups! Looks like you have much fun reading in the year ahead.<br /><br />I opted to create my own unofficial book challenge because I didn't want to follow a list for the year. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing you list!

Have you seen those reader's side tables? They're mini-bookshelves that can sit by your reading spot. They are so pretty. I'm not sure they'd help me be better about reading from my list, but pretty is good, right?Beth Hollmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795254887495671167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24309747.post-82814255183342126632016-01-16T10:31:30.347-07:002016-01-16T10:31:30.347-07:00I do the exact same thing with reading lists. Why?...I do the exact same thing with reading lists. Why?? This year, I thought I'd try a different tactic and make a pile of books rather than a list of books. The pile sits beside my most comfortable chair and is supposed to remind me to tackle it. I've read several books this year, but still not any from that stack. Ha!<br /><br />And I agree - skip the word OR in that last list. The final four books you listed are MUST READS!!<br />Jenn H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10307619657318996067noreply@blogger.com
