Winter Reading Challenge
Catherine made me aware of this challenge, which officially started on Friday last, and I'm finally posting my list of books. I had already planned on reading several, and re-reading a few for bookclub or in order to reacquaint myself before I read the 3rd in a trilogy or whatnot - but then the challenge encourages us to branch out of our genre - so I had to pick a few more to make me feel like a rounded person.
I've not got all of the author's listed, sorry. Don't feel like looking them all up at the moment...
1. Rebel Angels- Libba Bray
2. Sweet Far Thing - Libba Bray
3. Elantris - Brandon Sanderson
4. Plum Lucky - Janet Evanovich
5. To Kill A Mockingbird (I know, I should have read this years ago..)
6. The Other Boelyn Girl
7. Kristin Britain's Green Rider Trilogy
8. The Kite Runner
9. His Majesty's Dragon
10. The Android's Dream by John Scalzi

January Book Club - Elantris
Imagine that you are princess betrothed to a prince in a far away land. Imagine that you go to meet him to be married, only to find out he died before you got there and that you are actually now a widow. It stinks to be you because you thought you might actually like the guy.
January's Book Club will be on Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. He is a Mormon author and he does a great job with keeping the Fantasy genre fresh. His novels have strong women characters and a good plot.
I'm thinking to have book group on the 3rd or 4th Thursday in January (17th or 24th). We can nail down the date after the holidays. Please put your your preference at your leisure.
