My reading goal for 2013 is to read 100 books. Thanks to my participation in The Seasonal Reading Challenge on Goodreads, I am going to reach this goal earlier than anticipated. <the crowd goes wild with cheers>
This Is Basically How it works...
Each season (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall) a new challenge with a series of reading related tasks such as Reading a book written by a Goodreads Author or Reading a book and watching the film will be posted. Tasks are based on suggestions from members of the group and my own personal ideas [my = the group's moderator, not me]. Each task is assigned a point level and then it's up to you to decide which tasks you'll attempt (or if you want to try to finish them all) and then find the books that fit. - The Seasonal Reading Challenge
The Summer challenge starts on June 1, 2013. I hope to reach 100 books read and complete all of this season's tasks by August 31, 2013 at midnight EST (the end of the challenge). I think that I can do it With A Little Help From My Friends. I am feverishly working on my reading plan.
Reading friends, I need your help! I need book recommendations!
Please take a look at the Summer Challenge 2013: Tasks and suggest a book for a specific task. Between my library, PaperBackSwap (US-Only), and BookMooch (international), I hope that I will be able to cover most of your recommendations. [I am on a book buying ban until September.]
