Thank you for stopping by my blog.

You have great selection. I have to read four books for my book club and I am going to add extra two and some writing in the middle.

Don ~ We think alike! I'm excited to get started. It's nothing like curling up with a book and letting your imagination rip. I love that we share this passion and got a couple of ideas from your list as well.
The Alchemist is definitely going to be good. When I took a sneak peak my mind was deeply intrigued. And, She Comes First has been on my must read for some time. Yes, very, very stimulating. I'm looking forward to that one for sure.

-She ~ Happy to meet you through Don. He is good people and well, so are the bloggers he knows. Thanks for the heads-up on The Help. I might have to read another book along side that one or read it early in the year. I've never heard of Book Mooch but will have to check it out. I do donate and sometimes buy my books from http://www.betterworldbooks.com/
I'm looking forward to see your fav book list.

Shanequa ~ LOL...it's definitely cool if you remember to eat and brush your teeth, HA!! ;-)

Cool list. I'm an avid reader myself. Have been since elementary school (such a nerd). My problem is that once I start reading a book, I can't stop...regardless if I read through the night. Not a good look, lol.

I have 3 read books on your list, my personal fave being Little Bee (it's a gentle, touching read). The Help is a big commitment, but still worth it. The Alchemist is another classic. You've listed some other interested books I will look into.
My reading goals for next year includes more non-fiction, because I think it's important to read more biographies of the great people in the past. I will also be posting my fave 5 books this year.
Here's another resource for books- if you have old books you want to get rid of, you can swap them for books you're looking for: http://bookmooch.com/
Happy Reading,
-She

Interesting. I JUST wrote a blog post listing my favorite reads this year and I so happen to visit your blog and see of your similar passion. And, a list of recommendations to boot. I saved the link of this post to refer to in the future.

I want to read more J.D. Salinger and Mark Twain books this year. Browsing your list, The Help and The Alchemist are must-reads as well.

I believe I've read the She Comes First. If I remember correctly, it was an informative and stimulating read.

Great post.

Mrs. Pancakes ~ I hope you get to do more this coming year and A New Earth is a great way to start. It's a strong read, very insightful, though-provoking, and will challenge your beliefs as a Christian. This is a very good thing because you can have the opportunity to strengthen your faith or question it. Either way, self-growth is always a great experience.

Mally ~ Happy Holidays to you to Lady! I'll challenge you to read one, just one book for 2012. You think you can do it? ;-)

I love to read also! I find that the busier I become, the harder it is to enjoy a good book

Happy Holidays
