One Last Rash of Challenges
I told myself on December 31 that I had signed up for all the reading challenges that I was going to do…”no more,” I told myself. But challenges continued to trickle in in January and weaken my resolve and I saw a few that I could do without adding more than one or two titles to my burgeoning 2012 reading list.
The ‘challenge’ part is becoming keeping track of all—wait for it—63 challenges I’ve entered. Yup – that’s right-sixty-three. It’s hard to believe, I know, but there some that I really wanted to join but just couldn’t this year (for example: African, Middle East, Eastern European, Irish, Edgar Winners, Read the Bible…and so on)
Anyway, I promise that this is it. All the sign-up posts are up today and that’s it. From here on in, I read and review.
I hope you’ve had a great start on your reading year!
I can’t believe you signed up for 63 challenges. I feel so much better, I thought I was a bit goofy signing up for 25+. You go!
We had a bizarre snow/ice storm a couple of weeks ago and I spent so much time reading that my eyes are still crossed. My challenge reading is in good shape right now, but I’m behind on the review part.
I’m looking forward to following your blog this year. I love the eclectic reading.
Thanks, Cheri – it’s good to know there’s others like me out there who just can’t resist a good challenge. I’m the same in being okay on the challenge part so far, but behind in reviews.
I’m glad I discovered your blog, too – and look forward to keeping up with you this year. Thanks for fixing your ‘subscribe by e-mail’ function. 🙂
