February Reading List

Happy February everyone! I'm, er, a little behind on my reading but I'm going to go ahead and post this anyway. Maybe it will help motivate me...

"Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis

"Persuasion" by Jane Austen

"The Hound of the Baskervilles" by Arthur Conan Doyle

"Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"Tales from the Perilous Realm" by J.R.R. Tolkien

I've never read any of these before. Shocking, I know. I've seen the movies (well, for two of them), does that count?

January Reading List

"So, what are you reading now?" is a popular question amongst myself and my friends. You can tell a lot about a person from what they read... or don't read. I decided to post about what books I plan to read each month (and hopefully, though I make no promises, short reviews when I finish them). As you will see, I enjoy a variety of genres and try to mix light and heavy books. I am also doing some previewing for my little sister. So, here we go! January's list:

Joy: A Godly Woman's Adornment by Lydia Brownback

 Under the Greenwood Tree by Thomas Hardy

 Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson 

 The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

 Yes, I have this edition! It was on sale at Anthro!

Princess Academy by Shannon Hale

 

What do think? I would love to hear your thoughts! Do you find book reviews useful, or not so much? Have you read any of these? If so, are they good or am I wasting my time?

 Have a wonderful Sunday!
