Katherine's Reading List

This is my active book list. I love to read and I try to pretend I'm an avid reader, though often I don't find the time. The books that I'm in the midst of are in in yellow.

I've inherited a sort of reader's amnesia about some of them (inherited from my mother) so I might not remember all of the story. Makes it easy to read a book more than once!
