Beth Fish Reads: Challenge: Fall into Reading

Challenge: Fall into Reading

I'm joining a reading challenge hosted by Callapidder Days (read about it here). The challenge is to pick any group of books you'd like to read this fall. Here are books I plan to read:

Eye of the Jade, by Diane Wei Liang
Genghis: Lords of the Bow, by Conn Iggulden
Hippopotamus Pool, by Elizabeth Peters
Three Men in a Boat, by Jerome K. Jerome
To Say Nothing of the Dog, by Connie Willis

The challenge allows us to change the list whenever it strikes us, but I think I'll try to stick to these books.

I'll review each book here when I finish it. I'm interested to see what everyone else is planning to read between September 22 and December 21.

Happy reading!
Katrina @ Callapidder Days, 9/22/08, 9:45 AM: I'm going to try to stick to my list as well -- for me, it's easier to do that with fiction than the non-fiction.

I've never heard of Connie Willis, but To Say Nothing of the Dog looks like a very interesting and different kind of book.

Thanks for joining the challenge!

Lindsay, 9/22/08, 4:01 PM: I hope to stick to my list.. but I love that it is flexible that if I want to add a few books or take a book off that is completely doable :-). Looks like some good books you are going to read this fall.
Ronnica, 9/22/08, 4:36 PM: I have a feeling I'll be straying from my list. I don't plan to at the moment, but I will change my mind later and things will come up that I didn't realize when I wrote the list. Enjoy!
kalea_kane, 9/22/08, 8:35 PM: I have to say that I haven't heard of some of these books which makes this so much more awesome! Thanks for sharing! I wish you the best!
Leya, 9/23/08, 11:20 AM: Enjoy the books! Happy reading!
Unknown, 9/23/08, 3:28 PM: I haven't heard of a single book on your list, I'm going to have to check them out. Happy reading!
