Summer Bucket List Part 1

As most of your know, I am famous for making bucket lists. This year I am doing them in phases, if you will. First part is I am challenging myself to read 10 books by August 1st. That gives me 71 days from today...only today I don't feel like reading.

Here are the titles I will be attempting to read and I will let you know when I am finished with each one.

1) Giant George by Dave Nasser
2) Let's Pretend This Never Happened ( A mostly true memoir) by Jenny Lawson
3) The Patron Saint of Lost Dogs by Nick Trout
4) Starting Now by Debbie Macomber
5) Stories I only tell my friends by Rob Lowe
6) Entwined with you (crossfire series #3) by Sylvia Day
7) Lady Chatterley's Lover by D.H. Lawrence

8) Homer's Odyssey by Gwen Cooper
9) Not Young, Still Restless: A Memoir by Jeanne Cooper
10) Does the Noise in My Head Bother You? by Steven Tyler

That seems like a lot of reading to do! After I am half way through I will introduce the next challenge on my bucket list. Until then keep your feet flat on the ground and keep turning that page! Make it a challenge for yourself to read this summer, it is good for the soul!

 

 

*****Update, I must change one book.  I must admit I was intrigued by #7 Lady Chatterley's Lover because I had heard over and over at one time it was banned.  I am about 100 pages in of over 700 pages and I can tell you that I would never make it through the entire book.  It is not my style of reading material, and quite frankly it bores me to tears.  I must find a replacement and will be searching for a replacement.  You must give me props for trying new authors, straying out of my comfort zone, however, if you will.  I am not so intrigued any more and will not waste another reading minute on such foolishness!
