The 999 challenge (This group is to help you track your progress on the 999 challenge – 9 books in 9 different categories, all read in 2009. For an added challenge, try completing your books by 9/9/09!)
My categories:
1. Classics To read or reread
2. Biographies To broaden my horizons.
3. Young Adult To find the perfect book for my grandson (and cuz I love ‘em)
4. Books I haven’t been able to finish far too many!
5. Pulitzer Prize Winners Only ones I haven’t read yet
6. Historical Novels Other than England . . . : )
7. Mysteries Other than cozys or comics!
8. Nonfiction Sorely lacking there!
9. Books in series I haven’t read Just for fun.
I’m changing that Historical Novels to Fantasy/Sci Fi. I just don’t like a lot of historical novels (too much sappy stuff!) And there will be cozys in the mysteries!
Cool challenge but I’ve got to warn you – if you’re not careful, those challenges can take over! I’ve decided to stay pretty much challenge free for now. There’s one in July that I’m going to try and do – it’s the Japanese Literature Challenge. I’m one for two on it and want to try it again.
