Cannonball Reading List

Hey you guys! Cannonball Read starts in one month! Woohoo! Are you ready? In case anyone out there was losing sleep at night trying to figure out what I am going to read, I have included a reading list of what I will be reading and reviewing. This is not all of them and this list could easily change according to my mood/ attention span/ alcoholism.

I have read some of these books before but it has been a while. So long, in fact, that my feeble old lady brain has long since forgotten almost everything about them. So now I am going to reread them and do a proper review.

This is not the order they will be read, this is the order I can remember them. These are all books I have at home now (I have a book buying problem). Books can be added or taken away from this list whenever I want to, so suck on that:

1. The Wild Things – Dave Eggers
2. The Reader – Bernhard Schlink
3. The Long Walk – Stephen King
4. Bag of Bones – Stephen King
5. Cujo – Stephen King
6. We Need to Talk About Kevin – Lionel Shriver
7. The Color Purple – Alice Walker
8. The Kite Runner – Khaled Hosseini
9. Paint it Black – Janet Fitch
10. Lit – Mary Karr
11. The Corrections – Jonathan Franzen
12. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo – Stieg Larson (no, I have not read this yet)
13. The Girl who Played with Fire – Stieg Larson
14. Beginners Greek – James Collins
15. Publish this Book – Stephen Markley
16. Invisible Monsters – Chuck Palahniuk
17. The Men Who Stare at Goats – Jon Ronson
18. Shutter Island – Dennis Lehane
19. Patient Zero – Jonathan Maberry

20 - 26. The Dark Tower Series – Stephen King (I have read them all once before but this is really a series that needs to be read again)

27 – 33. Harry Potter – J.K. Rowling (yep, I am reading them all again. I am pretty pumped about it)

And I have 19 yet to be determined. Remember, I am open to suggestions as long as they don’t involve emo vampires or women who “find” themselves by finding a peen.

Feedback? Suggestions? Support? Ridicule?
