I really enjoyed keeping track of what I read in 2010. I always intended to keep such as list and finally started and maintained it for the whole year. I plan to do the same for 2011.
I plan to follow along with these two reading plans:
Life as Mom - Booking it! {there are a couple of books on the list that I have already read or won't read}
Life with Books {I am intrigued with the randomness of this challenge!}
I also am going to read Jane Eyre and Brideshead Revisited ~ both have been on my "to be read" list for months!
Happy Reading in 2011 :)
1. Happiness Project
2. Digestive Wellness for Children
3. The Secret Diary of Elisabeth Leseur
4. Brideshead Revisited ~ It took me a while to get into the book, I didn't really enjoy it until I was about halfway through, but I did end up enjoying it.
5. Knitlit ~ the beginning essays were better than the ones at the end
6. The Hunger Games ~ wow! this is a great read. A YA book about the future and a survivor like game.
7. Mansfield Park
8. Three Little Words: A Memoir ~ an excellent book about a young woman's life in foster care and subsequent adoption
9. Death by Cashmere ~ a knitting mystery series
10. Reed of God
11. Patterns in the Sand
12. Moon Spinners
13. Nefertiti
14. The Spirituality of George Washington
15. Green for Life ~ good green smoothie primer, excellent information
16. Catching Fire
17. Mockingjay
18. The Power of a Positive Mom
19. Help for the Harried Homeschooler
20. The Agency: A Spy in the House
21. The Help
22. U is for Undertow
23.

Thanks for the neat book links...new to me! I will enjoy checking them out:-) I recently ordered Diary of Elisabeth Leseur. Let us know your review!
I love all the book lists that like-minded moms put out there. It makes my work so much easier when looking for the next book ;)
I've got a Bronte novel on my list as well - but it's "Agnes Grey" by Anne. Looks like you have a great selection of books picked out so far! Happy Reading!
I am reading Brideshead Revisited right now. I saw it on your "to be read list" and remembered that Paul had a copy sitting on his bookshelf and said, "why not?" I needed something to read. After I finish this one, I am going to pick up my copy of Persuasion that I got LAST Christmas (2009) and finally read it. I like the idea on Life As Mom and am going to take the challenge though I will most likely make up my own list of 11. We'll see.
well I'm finally back to read this post on your reading list. I enjoyed reading through your 2010 list which had some great books on there for my own pondering. The 2011 random book challenge I don't think I could do. I have such little time to read that I want to read only what I choose myself -- couldn't stand reading a book that I didn't go into ahead of time wanting to read. I read Jany Eyre in highschool but it has been so long, and maybe I will put that on my list. I'll be definitely interested in your review of The happiness project. thanks for sharing.
