I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

Challenge - Outdo Yourself


Outdo Yourself Reading Challenge
January 1 to December 31
2011
Hosted by The Book Vixen

The idea is to read more in 2011 than you did in 2011. Re-reads are okay! There are other guidelines/rules and different levels of "more" so check out the sign-up page and join us.

I've already joined a 100+ books in 2011 challenge, same as last year and 2009. The difference is that in 2009, I kept track of what books I read, on my blog. For 2010, I started to do the same thing but I've only listed 7 titles. I know I've read more than that but where did I write it down? There is no way I'm going to try to outdo myself with the numbers from 2009 (300+!) so for now I'm going to pretend I made the 100 titles and challenge myself to.....

Getting My Heart Rate Up
read 1 - 5 more books

5 more titles than 100 = 105. Wait, I think I've already done that! Dang, maybe I'd better go for....

I'm on Fire!
read 16+ more books

I'm aiming for 116 or more books for 2011, unless I can find my 2010 records. All books will be listed through my 100+ challenge post since the challenges duplicate each other.

Off to look for my paper record of books read in 2010!

I have been unable to find my written records for 2010 and have already read 125 books for 2011. That being the case. I'm changing my challenge to.....
