Spring Reading Thing is hosted by Katrina of Callapiddar Days.
Spring Reading Thing 2012 is a fun, low-pressure reading challenge open to anyone and everyone. It will take place March 20th-June 20th
My goal this Spring is to get through as many books on my stacks that have been sitting around awhile. I know that I will want to read new acquisitions, but I will try to read one book from this stack to every new book that makes its way into my house during this challenge.

I have not read any of the titles you posted. Wow that's quite a list. You can do it, I'm sure of it.
I've got The Canary List on my list too. I don't recognize any of the others. Your system is a good way of getting to those books piling up. I may have to adopt that next time around. Happy reading!
Lots of awesome looking books! Enjoy!
Actually now that I think of it. I read Until We Reach Home by Lynn Austin and remember really liking it. :v)
I haven't read any of these but I have several of them waiting on my own shelves!
I haven't read any of the books you listed. I like your idea of reading one old book to one new one. Quite a few of the books on my list are ones that have been sitting on my shelves for a while. Good luck!
The Night Circus has been on my tbr list since it came out. Enjoy catching up. I know it's not easy.
I haven't read any of those, but I have enjoyed Sigmund Brouwer before.
Have a great spring!
I enjoyed On Folly Beach. I haven't read any of your other picks. Looks like I may need to check some of them out.
I haven't read any of the books on your list... But I like your system and I may adopt it next time.
Thanks for visiting.
What a list! The only one I've read is Shakespeare's Lady...very well written especially for a debut author who was 18 at the time she wrote it.
Happy Spring...and Happy Reading!
Nope, I don't recognize a single title on your list; although I do have an Amelia Grey romance on my list this time around. Enjoy your stacks!
Your stack of books is so amazing!!!!!!!!! Have fun!
WOW! Happy Reading! :)

Thanks for joining my Spring Reading Challenge! I look forward to seeing what all you read for it. :)
