My Bucket List 2012-2013

1. The Faith Between Us by Peter Bebergal and Scott Korb

I want to read this book because I like learning about other faiths and finding out how people chose that faith and why they are afraid to tell people what they believe. My mom got me the book as a present for Christmas so I figure I might as well read it.

2. What I Was by Meg Rosoff

I want to read this book because it is about a person who is experiencing first love. Towards the end of his life, he looks back on the relationship that has shaped and obsessed him for almost a century. The author has won many awards for other novels, so I'm hoping this is just as good.

3. Mafia Summer by E. Duke Vincent

I want to read this book because I like reading books about mystery/murder/suspense. I have tried reading it before but only read a couple of pages and it seems really interesting. I got it because for some reason, the cover was really appealing.

4. The Interpretation of Murder by Jed Rubenfeld

Again, I want to read this book because it is a mystery/murder/suspense book. My brother read it and said it was really good. Usually if he likes a book, I end up liking it too.

5. Trial By Fire by J.A. Jance

I am actually not sure why I want to read this book. I have noticed it in my grand-parents house a few times and the title and cover both seemed interesting to me. It seems like a mystery/crime book.

6. American Outrage by Tim Green

I want to read this book because it is kind of political and I like political books especially when people disagree because you get so many opinions on the subject. Besides that reason, I think I've seen the author's name some where else and may have read another book of his.

7. Imperfect Endings by Zoe Fitzgerald Carter

I want to read this book because the title interests me. Everyone at some point in their life has/will experience an "imperfect" ending. I am predicting that someone in the book will think it is an imperfect ending when really it will end up having a better outcome than what they expected.

8. Six Suspects by Vikas Swarup

Everything about this book interests me. The title suggests that it is a mystery book. The cover is red and orange (Symboling fire?) and also has six silhouettes on it. The author's name is what is really the most stand out thing about this book and is what first caught my eye.

9. The Worst Thing If Done by Ursula Hegi

I want to read this book because the title is really interesting and so is the picture on the cover. The book is about the ever-shifting boundaries of love and desire. The book has different parts that different characters narrate which I have always found interesting for some reason.

10. Hate Mail From Cheerleaders by Rick Reilly

I want to read this because Rick Reilly is supposedly really funny and a few of the people who helped write the book or did reviews on it are also really funny. I am hoping I will laugh a lot throughout the book.
