Cheryl (from CMash Loves to Read) and Gina (from Hott Books) are once again challenging the challengers with the Reading Challenge Addict Challenge!
Do you suffer from too many reading challenges? Do you vow to cut back every year...but seem to join even more the next go round? Then this is the place for you! ;)
And apparently there will be prizes and mini-challenges.
All good challenges need levels, and this one has 4 to choose from:
Easy as Pie - 1-5 challenges (entered and completed)
On the Roof - 6-10 challenges (entered and completed)
In Flight - 11-15 challenges (entered and completed)
Out of This World - 16+ challenges (entered and completed)
*****
I've completed (unofficially, of course) this year's (2011) challenge and once again, I'll by planning to fly Out of This World with 37 challenges! Maybe I could hop in the tardis with Doctor Who! ;)
As each challenge (linked to my challenge post) is completed, it will be crossed out and the date completed will be noted. I'm also planning to include comments after each challenge outlining my experience with each - the good and the bad!

2. 150+ Reading Challenge (150+ books)

JQ has been an author I've always wanted to try (you know how it goes...), so when I saw this challenge, I thought, "Perfect! Here's my chance. It'll give me a chance to try one or two." Then I started reading blurbs. Two turned into 16 (or more). Sigh
