Last year I participated in J. Kaye's 100+ book reading challenge. I was to try to read 100+ books. How did I do? Well if you are a regular reader you may have noticed my link on my sidebar for this challenge. Did I read 100 books? No. Did I read 50 books? No. I managed to read.....drum roll please.....Nine.....yes I said Nine (gasp) entire books. NINE! Is that pitiful or what? NINE? Ok you can all stop laughing now...really you can!
Since I am a glutton for punishment and I decided to sign up again! To try to read 100. (stop laughing) I do love to read and I do read alot, unfortunately most of my reading time is taken over by computer time. I really want to increase my reading time in 2010. So here I go again. Will I make 100? I highly doubt it, but I will try to maybe read 50 or 25.....
I have also decided to count all of the chapter books we have read.
Our favorites are marked with a **
