Fall Into ReadingWrap-Up Post

A big thank you to host Katrina at Callapiddar Days!
The weather outside is frightful. Winter must be here, and that means that Fall Into Reading 2009 is over.

I'm pleased to report that I finished ten of the thirteen books on my original list. (Links are to my reviews.)

• The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian
  by Sherman Alexie


• Best Intentions by Emily Listfield


• Don't Tell a Soul by David Rosenfelt


• The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman


• Just Take My Heart by Mary Higgins Clark


• Kissing Games of the World by Sandi Kahn Shelton


• The Real Real by Emma McLaughlin & Nicola Kraus


• Testimony by Anita Shreve


• Unwind by Neal Shusterman


• When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead

My favorite of the ten was Unwind, a young adult sci-fi novel that I found very thought-provoking. I'd not previously read anything by Neal Shusterman, but I'm eager to try some more of his work.

I typically do a bit of reading over the Christmas holidays, and I hope to do that again this year. I've already read 81 books this year - one more than in 2008 - and I hope to read three or four more.
