2010 Reading Challenge - week 13

I forgot to post this on Friday, but thought 2 weeks of books would be too confusing, so hopefully I can remember which books I finished before today.

Ok, I finished 5 books for week 13 of the challenge. That takes me to 61 out of 160. 99 to go and 8 months to do it! 38%!

And for the record they were:

  • Colorado Weddings by Joyce Livingston (3 in 1)
  • The Lighthouse Keeper's Daughter by Colleen Coble
  • Race to the Altar by Ron Benrey, Gloria Clover, Becky Melby & Cathy Wienke, and Gail Sattler (4 in 1)
  • Florida Brides by Muncy G. Chapman (3 in 1)
  • Perfect Piece by Rebeca Seitz

I was still reading:

  • More Precious Than Silver by Joni Eareckson Tada
  • Only Nuns Change Habits Overnight by Karen Scalf Linamen
  • Crime Scene Jerusalem by Alton Gansky (a great Easter book)

Teaser Tuesdays - March 30


Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Ok, so I missed this last week, but if you look at my last post, you'll find out why.

'Over the Wall' by Becky Melby & Cathy Wienke (book 3 in Race to the Altar)

'Ryan sputtered and dropped the lug nut. "And there ain't a drop of jelly on that boy!" He scrambled after the nut, and his voice rose from under the table. "But you still can't go flirtin' with a girl who's spoken for. Crumbs, flirtin' don't describe it. You acted like a plumb fool yesterday"

Tommy ignored the last part. "Who says she's 'spoken for'? Just because she's been with the same guy for three years doesn't mean it's a done deal."

This book, while a romance isn't one I would have normally chosen. All 4 of stories in this book revolve around NASCAR. Car racing is one of my least favourite things, but the book came ina box with a few others, and I had no choice.
