September read

If you haven't been able to tell, I am alternating fiction with non. My intent is for those of you who don't often read non-fiction for pleasure (many people simply read it for information) to broaden your horizons. Non-fiction, written well, can be as compelling as a good fiction book. For those of you who do prefer fiction, breath a sigh of relief. September is a fiction month...

Miriam referred to all the family birthdays in the months of August and September and wondered if that might suggest a potential read. It does fit in nicely with what I had in mind for the month of September. When birthdays roll around, we celebrate as though we had won an award. So in keeping with that theme, your September reading assignment is to find ANY FICTION book that has won an award. If you need some guidance, the library or internet will have many lists of various awards.

When you post the title of your chosen book, please let us know what the award is. It would also be interesting for you make comment (after your reading) as to whether you felt the award was justified.

Pick a winner! Happy reading!
