Thursday Thirteen

Happy Thursday Thirteen!

Last week I listed off some of the books I have enjoyed enough on the first read to read them again. (And again and again in some cases.) Since becoming a reviewer, I don’t have a lot of time to go back and read things again. However, that doesn’t stop me from reading them again eventually.

So here is my list of…

Thirteen Books I Will Read Again

1. A Piece of Normal - Sandi Kahn Shelton
2. The Dowry Bride - Shobahn Bantwal
3. The Artist’s Way - Julia Cameron
4. Writing Down the Bones - Natalie Goldberg
5. Bird by Bird - Anne Lamott
6. On Writing - Stephen King
7. South Beach Chicas Catch Their Man - Caridad Pineiro
8. Ender’s Game - Orson Scott Card
9. The Death Wizard Chronicles: The Pit - Jim Melvin
10. Lady of the Roses - Sandra Worth
11. The Blue Sword - Robin McKinley
12. Abarat - Clive Barker
13. Nervous Conditions - Tsitsi Dangarembga

    Wow. We only share Ender.

    *sigh*

    There’s so much out there, and so much that’s really great. I’ll never get through it all.

    Maybe that’s what the afterlife is if you’re good - a chance to catch up on the ‘to be read’ list. :)
