Diane | 56 comments I am new to the 50 book challenge, but already I have added three books to my to-be-read shelf from discussions I read here.
I do a lot of my reading in the car traveling back and forth to visit my children and grandchildren. Luckily my husband enjoys the driving and I am free to read!

My 2010 list:
1.Impossible by Dorothy Werlin Comleted 1/1/10
2.Dead Heat by Dick Francis Completed 1/2/10
3.The Help by Katheryn Stockett Completed 1/8/10
4.The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest by Stieg Larsson Completed 1/14/10 (This actually isn't available in the US yet but an amazing friend knew I had read the first two books in the trilogy and got it for me from Amazon UK.)
5.Matchless by Gregory Maguire Completed 1/16/10
6.So Brave, Young and Handsome by Leif Enger
Completed 1/23/10
