Whether you have a stack of books lined up that you haven’t quite gotten around to, or you are looking for a great new book to curl up with, why not join me in making a Spring Reading List? Katrina of Callapidder Days has begun the Spring Reading Thing 2009 – simply make a list of the books you would like to read between now and June 20th, write a blog post containing your list and link up at this post. I’ve had fun this morning reading other people’s lists, and even found a new book to add to my own (thanks, Holly!). As the mountains of books are consumed, folks will begin posting reviews here.
Here Are My Spring Reads:
1. Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life
2. Little Heathens: Hard Times and High Spirits on an Iowa Farm During the Great Depression
3. Housekeeping: A Novel by Marilynne Robinson
4. Murder in the Latin Quarter
5. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen – No, I have never read it!
6. Any Persephone Book – I would love to treat myself to one of these little forgotten classics.

1. and 2. sound interesting.
I’ve never read Pride & Prejudice either. I don’t really have a desire to but I often feel like I should.
This is a good list. I am especially looking forward to Murder in the Latin Quarter. I’m wondering if I should start with the first one though since I’ve not read any of the series yet.
Pride and Prejudice is an annual read for me. It is truly one of my favorites. This is a great list! I may have to copy some to my spring reading list!
Shani’s last blog post..CFW weekend: rain and fashion and wine, oh my!
Holly – I don’t think you need to start with the first book in the Cara Black series – each book stands on its own pretty well. I just ordered Murder in the Latin Quarter, and I can’t wait till it gets here!
