Contemporary Reading Challenge



Check out the details here and sign up too!

I'm attempting the 
Grand Slam: read 21+ books
Challenge

Mostly because I adore Contemporary romances and I read a boatload each year. I'll be reading both YA and adult for this challenge. I'm really excited to get started!

Hub Reading Challenge



Challenge objective Read/listen to 25 of the titles on our list of eligible titles [pdf] to finish the challenge. The list includes YA novels, audiobooks, graphic novels, and books for adults, so there’s plenty to choose from. Bonus objective: read/listen to all eligible titles to conquer the challenge!


I have a list of books that I created - some that I've been meaning to read for a while so, so it's a great excuse. It my first time joining the HUB challenge! Hope I can make it. Have you joined?

2013 Reading Challenges: Update



I attempted three reading challenges - let's see how I did on them.

TBR Pile Challenge 
I really wanted to complete this challenge but somehow I forgot about it. I hope to do better this year, because I really do want to read many of these books.

Feminist Challenge:
I wanted to read 10 plus books. I created a book list, but I didn't read all these books. Plus there was a book on the list that wasn't a feminist read at all.
Here are the books I did read:
1.  Flicker and Burn
2. Also Known As
3. Midnight Frost
4. Dark Triumph
5. Maid of Secrets
6. Fall of Night
7. Spies and Prejudice
8. Naturals
9. United We Spy
10. Crown of Midnight
11. Two Lies and a Spy
Contemporary Reads Challenge:
I created a book list for this challenge too. I was looking to read 15+. I didn't get to all the books on my list, but here's what I did read.
1. Moon and More
2. Grass is Always Greener
3. 5 Summers
5. Our Song
5. Also Known As
6. Perfect Scoundrels
7. Jane Austen Goes to Hollywood
8. All I Need
9. Trouble with Flirting
10. Falling For You
11. Just One Year
12. Taste Test
13. Six Months Later
14. United We Spy
15. Two Lies and A Spy
16. To Be Perfectly Honest
17. Roomies


2 out of 3 isn't bad. I tend to forget about my reading goals for the year, but hopefully I can stick to them next year. Do you participate in reading challenges?
