Yay! I am so excited. Today is the first day of Spring and the start of the Spring Reading Thing challenge. This is my fourth time to participate. I love Katrina's reading challenges. Her buttons are always so pretty too. :) Her blog is http://callapidderdays.com/ and the official sign up post will be up this afternoon. She already has the information posts up if you would like to read them. The challenge runs from March 20 to June 20. One of the good things is your list does not have to be set in stone so you change it if you need too. So I want to read all of the books below but with me starting online classes in April we'll see. I still love to read I just can't focus like I used too so the slump continues. I have a combination of non fiction, secular fiction, and Christian fiction on my list this time. I am hoping the nicer weather and this challenge will help me finish more books. lol :)

1. Read at least one book per week.

You have a great list! I Capture the Castle is on my tbr shelves. The Book Thief is a great read. Enjoy your books!
Wow, you do have quite a variety! Looking forward to hearing how you like them.
Happy reading. :)
I am reading and doing the study Made to Crave right now. It is excellent. I loved 13, Rue Therese, hope you do as well.
You have a terrific list and I've added a couple to my wish list. Good luck with your online classes. Happy spring reading!
I've got to tackle The Book Thief. I've started it twice! I WILL read it this summer. I hear nothing but praise for it.
Great List. I have Almost Heaven on one of my ereader. It is to be read before the end of the year.
Great list! I have a couple of them on my wish list. I haven't read Made to Crave but a friend of mine has and she loved it. :)
Looks good, Brittanie! (And this doesn't count as a "slump" in my book!) :) I loved The Book Thief. And I have Almost Heaven on my Kindle, but haven't read it yet...
Thanks for being part of SRT '11 -- enjoy your spring reading!
One book a week is a great goal.
Enjoy,

A book a week and don't give up! Love your goals. I've seen the Book Thief on a couple of lists. It looks interesting. Happy Reading.
I read (most of) The Omnivore's Dilemma and really enjoyed it (as much as you can *enjoy* that kind of thing...) - I really want to read The Book Thief, too, but it always seems to get pushed back til another time.
I have seen The Book Thief on a few participants lists. :) I, too, am hoping to read it sooner than later!
Happy Spring and Happy Reading!
Great list thanks for sharing! Good luck reading a book a week! Happy Reading!
Looks like a great list...I'm reading False Pretenses now and liking it.
Good luck with your schooling...and happy reading!
