Fall Into Reading 2007: a Sidetrack’d reading list
Fall is in the air – the leaves are beginning to change, pumpkins and mums are showing up at the stores, and the overnight temperatures are getting cooler. The new season officially begins today, and so does the Fall Into Reading 2007 challenge at Callapidder Days. I’m excited about setting and meeting some reading goals over the next few months, and I’m looking forward to seeing what everyone else will be reading as the cooler days come.
This time around I’m going a bit lighter on the non-fiction since I had such a tough time motivating myself in the Spring. This list is subject to addition, deletion, and any other type of modification as I see fit.
Non-fiction:
The Mommy Manual by Barbara Curtis
The Omnivore’s Dilemma by Michael Pollan
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver, et al. (finish reading)
Fiction:
Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
The Butterfly Effect by James Swallow
Eden Close by Anita Shreve
Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Anne Brashares
Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden
Bible Study:
I’m currently participating in a study of the book of Matthew through Bible Study Fellowship International; the questions and reading required for my class will be my Bible study time for now.
If you would like to join in the fun, or to view the reading lists of other participants, visit Callapidder Days.

Is “The Butterfly Effect” the same as the movie? Or, is this totally different?
This sounds like fun! Maybe once the 1st trimester is over and I am feeling a little better, I’ll join.
Yep, I’m into modifying when reality sinks in for me…
Happy fall reading to you.
Looks like a good, and nicely varied, list! Thanks for joining Fall into Reading!
Looks good! A lot of books I am not familiar with! Love ya!
I enjoyed Memoirs of a Geisha. I love that you put your Bible Study on the list! Happy Reading…
Great list! I would love to hear about Memoirs of a Geisha. I have been wanting to read that too.
Great list. I so enjoyed Water For Elephants and recommend it to all my friends!
I see you’re currently reading “Peace Like a River”. It’s one of my all-time favorite books! I hope you love it!
Drs appt this week?! Forgot to ask!
Looks like a lot of good reading!
I joined the reading challenging this fall for the first time. I’m excited about having a little “motivation” to get me reading more again. I am so excited to see “Eden Close” on your list. I LOVE, LOVE that book and have never met another person who has read it or is interested in it. Anita Shreve is one of my very favorite authors. How did you happen to choose it? Just curious.
