Giving in...A List for March

Ok, I'm giving in. I'm making a list. Mainly, my head space is cluttered and I have too much going on. Things are starting to feel a little overwhelming. The lists really do help with that.

In order to keep in line with my over all reading goals, I need to read 12.5 books each month. For variety's sake, I'll set of list of 21 books. 21 because it is easily divisible by 3. My other over-arching goal is to is to read 50 non-YA books out of my 150 total books. I've internally refined that into maintaining a general ratio of trying to read one non-YA for every two YA. So far, I've been pretty successful with this. As a sort of sub-goal, I'm trying to close out some of the series that I have hanging over my head. So, here's a list for March that consists of 7 non YA and 14 YA books.
