Seasonal Soundings is hosting a Summer Reading Challenge. No pressure other than compiling a list and publishing it during the first few days of June. The Challenge runs from June 1 to August 31. I'm going to participate in hopes that it will be a good form of accountability for me! I have many books I intend to read, but often find other ways to fill mr hours.
My list, while small, is ambitious for me considering that I'll be continuing to teach my children. But here goes! My list:
- The Good Earth - Pearl S Buck
- The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, A Memoir - Bill Bryson
- The Johnstown Flood - David McCullough
- Heaven - Randy Alcorn (I've already started this, but I'm only 2 chapters into it.)
- and possibly, A Thousand Splendid Suns - Khaled Hosseini

Kerry thanks so much for visiting my blog. I'm glad you're joining the summer reading challenge. Its not a chatty group but, like you said, it keeps me focused on my list at hand... I'm easily tempted away from my current read.
I like you list.. I can't wait to hear what you think of the Bryson book - I have liked other books I've read by him.
Oops, I forgot to say that I like your new home too and I'm so glad to have found it.
Going to update my Bloglines list :)
Love the print at the top of your blog! Glad you're joining the Summer Reading Challenge!
