Forget Cleaning, It's Spring Reading!



Katrina over at Callapidder Days has started a reading challenge for the spring. Create a list of books you'd like to read between now and June 20th. Then start reading! After the challenge is over, each participant is to write a post about how it went. Your list can be long, or as few as two books, so there's no pressure. This is a great way for me to dive into my TBR list. So, here goes nothing...

1. The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
2. Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli3. Zach's Lie by Roland Smith
4. Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen
5. Fever 1793 by Laurie Halse Anderson
6. The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness
7. Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson
8. Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
9. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain
10. Animal Farm by George Orwell
11. Donutheart by Sue Stauffacher
**15. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
**16. The Boy in the Striped Pajamas by John Boyne
**17. Looking for Alaska by John Green
**18. Peony in Love by Lisa See
*indicates new additions to list
**indicates even more new additions to the list

I stopped by the library on my way home from school today and checked out the first four books on the list so I've already got a good start. This list will more than likely change over time but I'm excited to finally sit down with some of these titles. What do you plan to read?
