An Update on my Spring 2020 Reading List
At the end of March, I put up a blog post about my spring 2020 reading list and now that April is nearly over I thought I would provide an update. For the first time in a long time, it looks like I am actually going to complete one of my reading lists!
Over the years I would often make reading lists so extensive that it would be physically impossible for me to achieve them. So, in more recent years I have been trying to make my lists smaller so they are more attainable. With that said, my spring 2020 reading list only consisted of four books: A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman, The Plague by Albert Camus, The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood, and Catcher in the Rye by George Orwell.
To my excitement, I have read all of these books with the exception of The Plague because it hasn’t come in the mail yet! But that’s not all. In addition to reading the majority of the books on my list, I have also read two others: The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon, I’ll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson (both of which had been on my shelf unread for years), and I am currently reading All Men are Liars by John Stephen Strange.
On top of this all, I have ordered a few books (in addition to The Plague) and I am patiently (okay, not so patiently) awaiting their arrival. The books I have ordered are as follows: The Sweet Life in Paris: Delicious Adventures in the World’s Most Glorious – and Perplexing – City by David Lebovitz (this one has already come in and is next on my ‘to-read’ list), The Paris Wife by Paula McLain, and The Shining by Stephen King.
All of this and it’s not even May! With that said, here is my updated spring 2020 reading list.
- The Sweet Life in Paris: Delicious Adventures in the World’s Most Glorious – and Perplexing – City by David Lebovitz
- The Tobacconist by Robert Seethaler
- The Plague by Albert Camus (if it comes in time)
- The Paris Wife by Paula McLain (if it comes in time)
Happy reading everyone, and stay safe and healthy!
