Today’s topic is Things That Make Me Instantly NOT Want to Read a Book. However, I’m turning 30 tomorrow and want to do a bit of a throwback to my ‘30 Before 30′ post from a year ago.

Let me begin by saying that I certainly did not read all 30 books listed there, some I lost interest in, some I just couldn’t get into, others I did not make time for. I probably won’t be doing this type of challenge for my 40th birthday.

Without further ado, here are the highlights from the books I did read from that list:

The underwhelming ones:

The ones I did not finish:

Lastly, the ones I hope to read before my next birthday:

    I’ve never participated in any kind of book challenge as far as reading goes. It always felt like too much of a “burden” for the type of reading I am, but this was fun to see. I hope even with the ones you didn’t read or didn’t enjoy, you still found some that were good reads. 🙂 And HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I hope you have the best day AND 30 is a great year for you. 🙂

    I liked The Radium Girls, but I did not finish it. Those poor girls suffered so much and for no good reason at all. 🙁

    Here is my Top Ten Tuesday post.

    I’ve heard excellent things about Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, but I haven’t had a chance to read it yet.
