New Year Reading Challenge

It's a new year and time for some interesting challenges, I think.  I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas holiday and New Year festivities.  Are you ready for a challenge?  Something to shake it up just a little.  For the avid reader looking for ideas to evolve, check out this challenge at http://www.lifewithbooks.com/2010/12/its-back-take-a-chance-challenge-3/.  Jenners at Life .... With Books is hosting this great challenge.  All you have to do to join in is visit her site and join the fun. 

Basic Information:


"The concept of the challenge is to take chances with your reading by finding books to read in unusual or random ways. I’ve listed 10 different ways to find books below. (see Life...With Books for this information.)

Feel free to complete at many as you want. However, anyone completing all 10 challenges by December 31, 2011 will be entered in a prize drawing to win a book of their choice from Amazon.

The challenge will run from January 1, 2011 until December 31, 2011.

Crossover books from other challenges is fine. You can read books in any format."

So check out her site, select one of the ten methods listed to start with, find your new book and blog about it, linking to Jenners site to be counted in the challenge.  You get to expand your reading repertoire and, if that's not enough, you'll be entered in the contest to win a book from Amazon once you've completed all ten.  That's less than one book per month!  I am so looking forward to this.  Let me know if you are joining this challenge and please provide links to your own posts.  I'd love to read of your discoveries!

Happy New Year!!!
