I thought I could read twenty-seven books in the next month?!

As I've mentioned (ahem) we're moving soon- in less than a month if all goes as planned. I've packed up most of our books, but of course left a few out to read while we (I) pack. In fact, I keep 27 books. I usually read less than a book a week, so I'm not really sure what I was thinking.

Here's the list of the 15 I kept from the library. Clearly these are the priority, since I can't take them with me. Two of them are half read (as noted) but what do I read after that?

• Steamed: A Steampunk Romance (Paranormal Romance (Signet)) by Katie MacAlister
• Too Good To Be True (Hqn) by Kristin Higgins
• Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void by Mary Roach
• The Baseball Codes: Beanballs, Sign Stealing, and Bench-Clearing Brawls: The Unwritten Rules of America's Pastime by Jason Turbow
• When Did I Get Like This?: The Screamer, the Worrier, the Dinosaur-Chicken-Nugget-Buyer, and Other Mothers I Swore I'd Never Be by Amy Wilson (Half done!)
• Made by Hand: Searching for Meaning in a Throwaway World by Mark Frauenfelder
• Generation Debt: How Our Future Was Sold Out for Student Loans, Bad Jobs, NoBenefits, and Tax Cuts for Rich Geezers--And How to Fight Back by Anya Kamenetz
• Debbie Harry Sings in French by Meagan Brothers
• Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. by Judy Blume
• Coop: A Family, a Farm, and the Pursuit of One Good Egg (P.S.) by Michael Perry (now past due, oops)
• The Stay-at-Home Survival Guide: Field-Tested Strategies for Staying Smart, Sane, and Connected While Caring for Your Kids by Melissa Stanton
• Ina May's Guide to Breastfeeding by Ina May Gaskin (probably won't read this one)
• What We Eat When We Eat Alone: Stories and 100 Recipes by Deborah Madison
• How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber
• Two Parties, One Tux, and a Very Short Film about The Grapes of Wrath by Steven Goldman (half done!)

Yikes!

And for a complete list, these are the ones I kept off these two lists:

• Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close: A Novel  by Jonathan Safran Foer (added after Trish made me)
• Look Me in the Eye: My Life with Asperger's by John Elder Robison
• Queen of the Road: The True Tale of 47 States, 22,000 Miles, 200 Shoes, 2 Cats, 1 Poodle, a Husband, and a Bus with a Will of Its Own by Doreen Orion
• Didn't I Feed You Yesterday?: A Mother's Guide to Sanity in Stilettos by Laura Bennett
• Throw Out Fifty Things: Clear the Clutter, Find Your Life by Gail Blanke
• Just Listen by Sarah Dessen
• Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen
• In the Woods by Tana French
• The Queen of Palmyra: A Novel (P.S.) by Minrose Gwin
• Buyology: Truth and Lies About Why We Buy by Martin Lindstrom
• The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart
• Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (Sisterhood of Traveling Pants, Book 1) by Ann Brashares (bought at the library sale after the list was made.)

A wee bit ambitious during a move, wouldn't you think?
