Long time no post!

I have been so busy on my other blogs that this poor blog has been neglected.  I decided I needed to rectify that problem this evening.  It's not that I haven't been reading, on the contrary I have 5 books going at once right now, one fiction, one Christian Living for review, one non fiction for encouragement, one non fiction for information and one just for fun.  Which to pick for today's Teaser Tuesday?
Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading
Guess I will pick the fiction book.
Nicolae by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins is one that has been sitting on my shelf for a while.  I have read the entire Left Behind series before (at least the core 12), but as soon as the final one was read I never reread them, even though I reread each one as the next one came out, sort of like I did for Harry Potter. Without further ado:
from page 100- "Rayford's eyes popped open. He had not move a muscle.  He had no idea how long he had slept, but something had interrupted his reverie."

I am no longer participating in any challenges.  I am too busy trying to lose weight and keep up with the weight loss challenges I am involved with, but I am going to try to keep this blog updated better.

Here are the books I am currently reading:

Nicolae by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins (3rd book in the Left Behind series)
Transforming Prayer by Daniel Henderson
Chicken Soup for the Soul: Shaping the New You
Sneaky Fitness by Missy Chase Lapine and Larysa Didio
Sesame Street: A Celebration: 40 Years of Life on the Street by Louise A. Gikow

2010 Reading List

I know this year is almost half way gone, but I am determined to make a go of these reading challenges.  I am not sure what blog I was on when I saw a great idea for organizing the reading list, but I am going to borrow the idea.  All of the books on the list will count toward the 100+ books challenge.  A "T/S" after the title refers to the Thriller/Suspense Challenge, while a "ND" after the title refers to the Nancy Drew Challenge.  After I am done updating January through April (I am having trouble remembering everything I read) I will also post the date I finished each book I list.  There will be a separate post for any details I share about each book or review I write, and the title will be a link to the post.

1) The Scarlet Lady: Confessions of a Successful Abortionist
2) The Read-Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease
3) The Duggars: 20 and Counting by Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar
