Musing Mondays (Jan.9)

This weeks posting asks:

Are there any “raved reads” –books that everyone seems to be talking about– that you’re hoping to get read this year, yourself? What books are they, and why are you hoping to read them? Is it because you want to say you’ve read it? Or, would you have chosen to read it, even if you’d discovered it yourself, and no one was raving about it?


I am hoping to read The Hunger Games and The Help.  The reason that I wanting to read The Hunger Games is not only a lot of people have said amazing things about, but also because the movie is going to be released in March.  And the reason for The Help is basically the same, at least from what I have heard and have been wanting to read it for at least a few months.  I am also hoping to read 11/22/63 this coming year; I have heard nothing but good things about the book.
