2011 has been a crazy, but good, year. My biggest accomplishment was having another little boy, Levi! He arrived the end of April, and surprisingly I’ve been able to read more since he was born. My secret? I read while nursing him! Yes, sometimes my toddler is tearing up the house while this happens, but I need ME time, especially while breastfeeding (it’s very depleting!).
In 2012 I look forward to reading even more and participating in more challenges. I think I’ll choose 1 or 2 in addition to the R.I.P. challenge in the Fall.
Challenges in which I participated:
R.I.P. VI (finished 4 of 4)
My favorites (in the order I read them):
The Poisonwood Bible by: Barbara Kingsolver (Historical Fiction)
Chime by: Franny Billingsley (Fantasy)
Wither by: Lauren DeStefano (Sci-fi)
Dreams of Joy by: Lisa See (Sisters Pearl and May: Book 2) (Historical Fiction)
A Clash of Kings by: George R.R. Martin (A Song of Ice and Fire: Book 2) (Fantasy)
