In an attempt to "use what I got," I went through the house and collected all of the books I haven't read yet. There really is no reason for me to step into a bookstore (or in reality, log on to Amazon) for quite some time. So here is my list of books to get through in 2012. To be fair, I've started a lot of them, but in the chaos I like to call my life, things happen and for whatever reason, I never get around to finishing.
In no particular order:
Mitten Strings for God: Reflections for Mothers in a Hurry
Weightless: Making Peace With Your Body
How to Raise Good Catholic Children
Adventures in Orthodoxy
God Is Love: Deus Caritas Est
The Catholic Way: Faith for Living Today
Pardon and Peace: A Sinner's Guide to Confession
The 5 Love Languages of Children
The Life of Mary As Seen by the Mystics
The Temperament God Gave Your Spouse
Clare and Her Sisters: Lovers of the Poor Christ
Large Family Logistics
Beautiful Girlhood: Revised by Karen Andreola
Strengthening Your Family: A Catholic Approach to Holiness at Home
Simplicity Parenting: Using the Extraordinary Power of Less to Raise Calmer, Happier, and More Secure Kids
Organized Simplicity: The Clutter-Free Approach to Intentional Living
The education of Catholic girls
How to Pray Well
Small Steps for Catholic Moms
Choosing Beauty: A 30-Day Spiritual Makeover for Women
Educating the WholeHearted Child -- Third Edition
Playful Learning: Develop Your Child's Sense of Joy and Wonder
A Mom After God's Own Heart: 10 Ways to Love Your Children
And maybe I'll fit in that last Jane Austen novel.
What will you be reading?

Count me in on the Weightless Book Study... my copy is on it's way! Reading Tina Fey next, finished Cedar Cove Series (Macomber) today. Have a hefty list of possible reads (now longer as I am taking ideas from your books), but think I will check the shelves to see what I have put aside for "a rainy day". Rainy days around here involve fort making, lego battles and shared reading, not mommy reading!
ReplyDeleteI really need to write down your list. You have so many great ones. I did get the Weightless book too. I need to start reading it soon.
