Problem? Who Has A Problem?

6:31 PM

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I said I wasn't joining any more challenges, but this is another one that's not really a challenge since I was already planning to read a bunch of books from the approved list. I'm joining at Level IV, which involves reading 20 books off a list of bloggers' favorite reads from 2010. Here's my game plan:

1. The Stand by Stephen King (also reading for the Stephen King Challenge)
2. The Thirteenth Crime by Emma Michaels
3. Room by Emma Donaghue
4. Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood (also reading for Dystopia Challenge)
5. Unwind by Neal Shusterman
6. Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (also reading for the 2011 Page to Screen Challenge)
7. Atonement by Ian McEwan (also reading for the 2011 Page to Screen Challenge)
8. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
9. Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick
10. Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick
11. Fallen by Lauren Kate
12. Halo by Alexandra Ardenetto
13. The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
14. Vampire Academy by Rachelle Mead
15. Peeps by Scott Westerfield
16. Mockingbirds by Katherine Erskine
17. Torment by Lauren Kate
18. Austenland by Shannon Hale
19. The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane by Katherine Howe
20. Spells by Aprilynne Pike

We'll see how I do ...

lol, You're so funny! But I think it's great that you are trying so many challenges!

I have only read "Unwind" by Neal Shusterman. It's a fascinating concept told in the perspective of 3-4 teens. I found 2 of the perspective to be great and the others I just had to push through to get back to the good stuff!

I also own Vampire Academy, but have yet to read it. If I read it soon, I will let you know what I think.

I know. I'm a dork :) I don't take reading challenges very seriously, though. If I finish, I finish. If I don't, I don't. No big deal.

I just checked UNWIND out of the library - can't wait to read it. I've had the VAMPIRE ACADEMY books on my shelf forever. Just need to get around to reading them. So many books, so little time ...

I've got a lot of those on my list too. I think I've read 3, but Unwind was my favorite of those. Hope you love it!
