What's on Your Bookshelf?

Warning! Audience participation is required!

My friend Jennifer McCarty asked these questions of her readers, and her friend (and my new friend) Jodie Bailey borrowed it from her, so I naturally had to snag the list myself. (My answers are in blue.) I'd love to hear what you've been reading too! Please chat with me in the comments below.

1) How many books have you read so far in 2010?
I have read at least 10 that I can think of right now: Thin Places and Life in Defiance (DeMuth), Rise and Shine (Higgs), Crazy Love and Forgotten God (Chan), Lost Mission (Dickson), Songbird Under a German Moon (Goyer), Love Finds You in North Pole Alaska (Lough), Power of a Praying Wife (Omartian), Deceit (Collins).

This excludes another 14 or 15 books I've read and researched for Magical Mouse Schoolhouse Disney details.

2) What percentage is fiction/ non-fiction?
Looks like 60% fiction / 40% non-fiction.

3) What’s your favorite 2010 read so far?
Athol Dickson's Lost Mission. It just won a very well-deserved Christy Award for Suspense!

4) What are you currently reading?
I am reading an Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) of Brandilyn Collins' Deceit. Tune in next week for the review!

5) What’s at the top of you to-be-read pile?
Tricia Goyer's Arms of Deliverance is next in line.

Your turn! What's on your bookshelf?

I read an average of two books each week, so that would make it about 50 books. My fiction/nonfiction average is about 75% fiction/25% nonfiction.

I liked Lost Mission, too. I don't keep all the books I read, but that one is definitely a keeper.

Wow, that's a lot of books! You'd have to live in a library if you kept them all ;)

You're right, Jodi. I don't keep all the books and I STILL live in a library! (Where better for a writer to live?)
