And I loved your thoughts on the benefits of taking on a reading challenge.<br /><br />I'm definitely going to check out Coffee Shop Conversations.

I read more fiction than usual this fall too. Isn't Good and Angry a great book?! One of my favorite parenting titles. And I've really enjoyed reading along with you and everyone else with The Holiness of God. Definitely a classic in the making!Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02959806709973196975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-18789692719499184852010-12-22T10:24:16.801-06:002010-12-22T10:24:16.801-06:00I've been on the lookout for The Help since re...I've been on the lookout for The Help since reading your review.<br /><br />And it's good to know that The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is cleaner than the movie. The story has great appeal but I hated the movie. <br /><br />Congrats on all that you accomplished!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-83632801844731076222010-12-22T09:36:59.712-06:002010-12-22T09:36:59.712-06:00I like the way you have your wrap up post organize...I like the way you have your wrap up post organized. I'm much more willy-nilly both with choosing books for challenges and with followup (other than the actual reading, of course!) WTG! I'm still on the fence about The Help, but I will be purchasing it in '11 and reading it just so I can make up my own mind about it!Julie https://www.blogger.com/profile/01670155947411449802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-73918799074254040232010-12-21T22:18:15.311-06:002010-12-21T22:18:15.311-06:00Lisa,

It's really helped keep me on track! And, it's helped me broaden my genres of reading, too.<br /><br />I even added The Help to my list because of your recommendation. :)<br /><br />My favorite book read this fall....Your Home a Place of Grace by Susan Hunt.Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10612716398097555419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-11946041332113578172010-12-21T15:19:09.116-06:002010-12-21T15:19:09.116-06:00My to-read list is never ending and my book basket...My to-read list is never ending and my book basket constantly full!

I am now anticipating more from this author.<br />And I am going to have to keep my eye out for that novel you mentioned based off of Beauty and the Beast! {love that movie!!}<br /><br />If you are looking for a challenge for 2011, I am hosting a Jane Austen challenge on my blog!

My biggest problem in sharing Christ -- besides my reluctance to talk to anyone about anything potentially confrontational -- is not knowing hoe to get there from everyday small talk.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-58213238428270082262010-12-21T08:55:30.168-06:002010-12-21T08:55:30.168-06:00The Help is definitely on my list of books to read...The Help is definitely on my list of books to read soon - great wrap up post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-21937659619959205062010-12-21T07:57:40.418-06:002010-12-21T07:57:40.418-06:00My list is so long, and keeps growing longer.
