Books Read in November 2011

Wheee!!!  December already and moving quickly toward the end of the year.  End of the year??  How is that possible?

November was a busy month, so I only read 5 books (I'm including a picture book, LOL!):

• Smokin' Seventeen by Janet Evanovich - a bit of fluffy fun!
• The Roar by Emma Clayton, a dystopian sci fi middle-grade book
• The Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes, a classic picture book
• Midwives by Chris Bohjalian
• Goldstrike by Matt Whyman, a teen thriller

So, that's 2 grown-up novels, 2 novels for kids/teens, and 1 picture book.  I enjoyed them all.  I guess my favorite from last month is The Roar, a book my son has been telling me to read for months - he was right, as usual!

Where Are You Reading 2011 Challenge Update:  I updated my map to include another 2 London locations (The Roar and Goldstrike), Vermont (Midwives), and New Jersey (Smokin' Seventeen), so that brings my 2011 total up to 17 different U.S. states and 8 countries.

For my Fall Into Reading Challenge, I have read 5 of my list of 10 grown-up books and 5 out of 10 kids/teen/YA books. With only 3 weeks to go on the challenge, it looks like I may come up a bit short!

What were your favorite books read in November?
