I love reading. I always have. As far back as I can remember, I was reading books. I still spend plenty of time every single day reading. Maybe not as much as I would like some days, but always every day.
For me the reading challenges are a good way of keeping a list of books on hand to read. In actuality all but one book is in my home right now. Some are library books, some are borrowed & some have been on my shelves far too long so they earned a spot in this go-round.
If you'd like to check the official rules, please go check out Callapidder Days. The challenge goes live on the 23rd - the first day of Fall. You have plenty of time to get your books together.
My list is rather long this time. I even decided to take a photo - make sure you scroll all the way down past my list. You'll see what I mean about a BIG list.
I'll be marking the books I'm currently reading in read. They will be marked off when I finish them. Review links will be provided at the end of each if I post a review.
In no particular order....

Lisa, that is an ambitious stack of books! I don't usually plan my books out that well--it's hit or miss, depending on what I check out from the library and then what I can read before it's due, lol. I love that you used a ruler to measure!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That's one tall order! Mine is an ongoing list. I hope none of the challenge owners care. I just keeping a running list of books for the year and challenges all in one post. I better hurry up and upload the fall reading challenge if it starts tomorrow. Thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to see Deb - I'm jealous. I'm still thinking I WANT to do the fall challenge but my life is so challenging now...I need a challenge to read my teacher's notes every week....maybe that could be my goal. LOL Still thinking. LOL
ReplyDeleteOo, I love the picture! A picture of a big stack of books just makes my day. :) Your list of books sounds great, too -- not to mention, fairly ambitious. Thanks for being part of the challenge -- enjoy all that reading!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great stack of books! I enjoy the Women's Murder Club series by Patterson. My daughter is just finishing up with the O'Malley series by Dee Hendersen. I have yet to take the Harry plunge, my boys tell me I must do so soon! Happy Reading.
ReplyDeleteThat is a HUGE list but I love to read too . . I just wish I had more time for it! Happy Reading!
