52 Books in 52 Weeks


Robin, of My Two Blessings, is hosting the Read 52 Books in 52 Weeks challenge.  This is the one that worries me a bit... I'm not sure I can pull this one off.  My others?  Most of them will be a bit of a stretch, maybe, but certainly not challenging.

I will probably blog about most of these, so I will be adding links here, and keeping the 'master list' all in one place too.

So, here goes:
  1. Till We Have Faces by C. S. Lewis 
  2. The Centurion's Wife by Davis Bunn and Janette Oke; and The Gospel According to Lost by Chris Seay.
  3. Inside the Revolution by Joel Rosenberg
  4. The Hidden Flame by Davis Bunn and Jeanette Oke
  5. Tithing: Test Me in This by Douglas Leblanc
  6. I blew it... but I read two books in week 2, so I deserved an off week, right?
  7. Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling by Debra Bell
  8. Introducing Whole Foods Cooking by Sue Gregg
  9. Chronological Guide to the Bible 
  10. Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
  11. Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis
  12. Famous Men of Rome by John Haaren and A. B. Poland
  13. D'Aulaires' Greek Myths by Ingri and Edgar D'Aulaire
  14. The Sword, the Ring and the Parchment by Ed Dunlop
  15. City by David Macaulay
  16. Classic Myths to Read Aloud by William F. Russell
  17. Will the World End in 2012? by Raymond C. Hundley
  18. Theras and His Town by Caroline Dale Snedeker
  19. Chasing Francis by Ian Morgan Cron
  20. Homeschooling for the Rest of Us by Sonya Haskins
  21. Shattered by Frank Pastore
  22. Hearts Awakening by Delia Parr, Andrea Carter and the Trouble with Treasure by Susan Marlow
  23. The Wanderings of Odysseus by Rosemary Sutcliff
  24. Sixteen Brides by Stephanie Grace Whitson
  25. Pearl Buck in China by Hilary Spurling
  26. The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
  27. I don't know
  28. I don't know
  29. Missing Max by Karen Young
  30. I don't know
  31. I don't know
  32. Amish Proverbs by Suzanne Woods Fisher
  33. Let's Do Lunch by Roger Troy Wilson
  34. Christians are Hate-Filled Hypocrites by Bradley Wright
  35. Charlie and Trike by Ken Ham
  36. The Goodness of God by Randy Alcorn

I'm totally confident I'll end the year reading well over 52 books.  But will it actually be one per week?  Stay tuned....

Hi Debra,

Welcome to the 52 books challenge. I've also joined some of the same challenges as you - What's in a name and Classics bookclub. Look forward to hearing about what you read.

How about 52 pages in 52 weeks? I think I can handle that! LOL

Debra said...

Sheri, I think you need to aim a little higher than that!!!! LOL!

Robin, thanks for the welcome! I think this one is going to stretch me, so it should be a good thing! I'm excited about this one!
