Holy cow?! I don’t join challenges because I think they’d start to feel like homework; clearly, you don’t feel that way.

Can you “double dip” and use the same book for three or four different challenges?

The Blog Improvement Project and the Mini Challenge sound good. I joined World Citizen Challenge and read some nonfiction. :)

Happy New Year, Jessica!

I bow out of the Man Booker Challenge with just one book short because I couldn’t get into neither of the remaining selections. I’m going to be more cautious with reading challenges this year. I might chime along and pick up a few books but probably won’t overdo it. I like to be spontaneous. :)

In 2009 I’ll focus on relating my reading and writing experiences through blogging. Until i started blogging, both reading and writing have been very private, keeping to myself in the Moleskine notebook. Blogging forces me to make the connection between my random skeins of thoughts into making them coherent and readable to other readers.

I plan to tackle a few epic chunksters this year like Les Miserables and Gone with the Wind. I try to find at least one reading partner to read these giants. So I’m definitely in for Chunkster Challenge.
