I am not really following the list of the 52 books to read. I could check a bunch off, but I am just reading books. The categories seemed like a fun way to challenge myself to read new things. However, it turns out I read a variety already. Also I love making lists, but I am never good at following lists.
Today marks the start of Week 15 and I have finished 31 books. I am currently in the process of reading another 3, though I should probably pick one at a time.
Have you ever noticed that your mood effects what you can read? I had a book I struggled to get through, so I had to set it aside only to pick it up a few days later and read late into the night. My mood changes my taste, sometimes dramatically so.
Things I have discovered.

Things I have discovered.
- Neil Gaimon is one of my new favorite authors
- Continued from last year, I really enjoy historical fiction
- And books with insights into other cultures
- Books that have a storyline AND end with a recipe are also fun
- My want to read list keeps growing
- I am going to have to find a system to jote down author names and want to read lists to keep tucked in my purse and start pursing the library.
- I like children's books. I am tempted to start my way through Newberry award winners.
- Reading chapter books to the kids is something we all look forward to, but they feel betrayed if I read ahead. (Loving the Green Ember series)
- I have mixed feeling on Prime books on Amazon. I have read a few good ones, but quite few that weren't my cup of tea. Apparently a reason they are free.
- I also am completely done even trying any sort of romance book, not my genre.
