Lu at Regular Rumination is hosting a Women’s History Month Challenge. I’m in and my goal will be to read at least five books written by women. The majority of the books I read are by women but this month it might be a problem. Next week I have to read The Scarlet Letter for one of my classes. Plus, I only have two weeks to read Atmospheric Disturbances and The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. No matter what I plan on finishing this challenge though. Here are some of the books I plan on reading: The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery. I’m currently reading this.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. After waiting weeks for this book, I only have three weeks to read it before I have to return it to my library. No holds are allowed since this book is the book right now.
The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros. It’s been years since I read this, so I wanted to reread another strong and female voice.
First, Body by Melanie Rae Thon. I first read this collection of short stories years ago. I can’t wait to reread it.
Do you have any suggestions on great books I should read by women? I would love to hear them.

Atmospheric Disturbances will count towards your challenge and is relatively short as well. House on Mango is wonderful, as I'm sure you know! :-)
