April Is…

DSCN0088

April means so many things to so many people. For us New Englanders, it means spring should be here but… we all know not to pack away the gloves or take off the snow tires quite yet. For some people nationwide, it means scrambling to fill out last minute tax forms and making urgent CPA appointments. For me personally, it means two more books from LibraryThing (how in the world did I get to be so lucky?):

  • Franklin & Lucy by Joseph Persico (which came today)
  • Imagine Me & You by Billy Mernit

and the following Book Lust Challenge celebrations:

  • In honor of the best time to visit Australia ~ Road to Coorain by Jill Ker Conway (something I started almost a year ago but never finished)
  • In honor of National Gardening Month ~ Deep in the Green by Anne Raver
  • In honor of poetry month ~ TBA (I’ll read two poems every other book but I’ll start with What He Thought by Heather McHugh)
  • In honor of National Dog Month ~ Apologizing to Dogs by Joe Coomer
  • In honor of Earth Day ~ Gain by Richard Powers

and if there is time:

  • In honor of National Library Week ~ Ginger Pye by Eleanor Estes (a kids book)
  • In honor of National Humor Month ~ A Case for Three Detectives by Leo Bruce

I’m thinking this is a pretty ambitious list but as I learned last month it’s not a big deal if I don’t get to it all. There’s always next April!
