I've had three running lists going of what I read and can recall reading in 2008. For my own sake, I needed a space where they all could be together. If not for helping my memory, than for giving me recollection of what a lot of free time was good for and how nice it was to read because I wanted to and not because I had to.
So... here goes:
In A Sunburned Country - Bryson
Pillars of the Earth - Follett
Love The One You’re With - Giffin
Eat, Pray, Love - Gilbert
Jemima J - Green
The Other Woman - Green
To Have and To Hold - Green
The Boleyn Inheritance - Gregory
The Constant Princess- Gregory
The Other Boleyn Girl - Gregory
The Queen’s Lover- Gregory
The Virgin Queen - Gregory
Same Kind of Different As Me - Hall/Moore
Someone Knows My Name - Hill
On Writing - King
The Poisonwood Bible - Kingsolver
Into the Wild - Krakauer
Bird By Bird - Lamott
Grace (Eventually) - Lamott
Travelling Mercies - Lamott
And It Was Good - L’engle
Slave - Lewis/Nazer
I’m Proud of You - Madigan
48 Days to the Work You Love - Miller
Three Cups of Tea - Mortenson
Out of Solitude - Nouwen
The Last Lecture - Pausch
Julie and Julia - Powell
Intuitive Eating - Tribole/Resch
Me Talk Pretty One Day - Sedaris
Naked - Sedaris
Snowflower and the Secret Fan - See
The Shack - Young
Considering I'll have less than a third of the freetime I had last year to read this year... maybe I should shoot for half as many for 2009? Sigh.

This was fun to see Kristine! I've read many of the books on your list, and now I've got some suggestions to check out at the library - thanks!
We share some preferred authors too ... my hands-down favorite Bryson book is "A Short History of Nearly Everything". Put it on your list for 2009!!

Hey Kristine! I was reading through your last couple of post and saw the one about a womens bible study. I would LOVE to participate if you do one. It didn't say anything about it being a married womens one so if its not I would love to do it. Maybe one day I'll get married! :)
i think the poisonwood bible is one of my favorite books of all time.
My goodness! You're good! I think I only fit in like 4 books last year, and 2 of them I read in December...Pathetic, I know;).
This year, I'm going to read. Read real good;).
