My Reading List Update

What's on your reading list this year? Have you set any reading goals? I'm trying to do a better job of reading with purpose and intention, so I thought I'd give y'all a quick update of my reading progress from the first quarter of 2015. As you can see, my theme right now is Paris for obvious reasons. Once that trip is finished, I'm not sure what I'll focus on next. It sure has been fun to try to immerse myself in some books with French settings or characters though.

Finished reading in 2015:

1. Prince Lestat: The Vampire Chronicles #11 by Anne Rice
2. Paris in Love by Eloisa James
3. The Paris Wife by Paula McLain
4. Lonely Planet-Paris
5. Frommer's Paris 2012
6. Frommer's Paris Day-by-Day

In progress reading:

1. Sketching School published by Reader's Digest
2. Still Life Sketching Bible by Hazel Harrison
3. Paris My Sweet: A Year in the City of Light by Amy Thomas

Tried to read and abandoned for now:

1. Paris to the Moon by Adam Gopnik
2. The Artist's Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity by Julia Cameron

Want to read in April:

1. Paris by Edward Rutherford
2. A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway
3. A Touch of Stardust by Kate Alcott
4. The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
5. Life after Life by Kate Atkinson

If you're on Goodreads, feel free to add me as a friend. I'm listed there as my real name because I'm not very original. Haha! What are you reading right now? Do you love it? If so, please tell me all about it. :)

  1. I'm between books at the moment -- it seems like I'm either completely obsessed with reading or scrapbooking at any given time, with little overlap! I recently read Station Eleven and liked it, though it was a bit bleak. The actor who played the romantic hero in The Princess Bride wrote a book about the making of it -- quick read, if you're a fan of the movie. I've enjoyed a couple of Rainbow Rowell novels: Attachments and Fangirl. The characters in each are either college age or in their twenties; I think she does a great job of remembering what those ages are like.
