Lit: Uniquely Portable Magic



I tend not to plan my reading out too much, other than reviews that have deadlines and book club commitments. But I've got a trip coming up so, of course, I need to plan on what I'm going to take to read and I've got some NetGalley books I need to make sure I read soon, not to mention all of the ARC's that have been piling up. So a plan needs to be made...mind you, it's a flexible plan. I'm trying to be better about reading what I want and I quite like it so if my plan doesn't suit my mood, it will change. But I really am looking forward to everything on this list!

For May:
Calling Me Home by Julie Kibler for book club
Where Woman Are Kings by Christie Watson
The Canterbury Sisters by Kim Wright
Circling The Sun by Paula McLain

For June:
Misery by Stephen King for a read along hosted by Care of Care's Online Book Club
Reading Lolita In Tehran by Azar Nafisi for a read along with Lori of Irreverent Escapades*

The Festival of Insignificance by Milan Kundera for a TLC Book Tour

  1. Oooh, I like your August books. Have read all those and enjoyed them - all of them. I want to read Circling the Sun too and also Some Luck. And Natchez Burning was great. I've got The Bone Tree here to read sometime soon. Enjoy your summer reading!

  4. I love that stack of yours. You do have some great reading coming up. I also try not to plan my reading much except around reviews. That makes me feel less pressured.
