I've put this off for a couple of weeks now, thinking I'd get more reviews written (silly me). But I guess it's really time to wrap-up the 2009 Fall Into Reading Challenge.I read a dozen books during the course of the challenge, and enjoyed almost all of them – Bram Stoker's Lair of the White Worm is the only one I really wouldn't recommend to anyone. So I think that was a pretty successful season of reading. Only one of the books I read was actually on my original list of possible reads, but several had been on my TBR list for a long time; so the challenge definitely helped me there.
Here's the list of books I read, with links to reviews if any:
- New Year's Eve. Lisa Grunwald
- The Man in the Picture. Susan Hill
- The Woman in Black. Susan Hill
- From Doon with Death. Ruth Rendell
- The Friend of Madame Maigret. Georges Simenon
- The Lair of the White Worm. Bram Stoker
- Homer & Langley. E.L. Doctorow [review to come]
- The Uncommon Reader. Alan Bennett [review to come]
- Stardust. Joseph Kanon [review to come]
- The Lover. Marguerite Duras [review to come]
- Santa Clawed. Rita Mae Brown
- Christmas Card Magic. Margaret Perry
Congratulations on a job well done!
ReplyDeleteYou did very well. I'll be looking for your review on The Uncommon Reader.
ReplyDeletehave a great week!
Hooray for another challenge done! I finished The Fall Challenge but don't even remember if I wrote a formal wrap up post or not. Fall and Winter and the holidays kind of all melted together this year. I saw you were doing the winter word challenge also--kudos to you for that--it looked like a hard one to me.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
