Challenges left for
2nds Challenge: 2/3 looks tricky, but The Plague is short and Mercy would be fast.
Something About Me: reading Lolita now to finish up
50_books top 20: Lolita and A Prayer for Owen Meany, with no intention of reading LoTR
NYT Notable Books: I read the 6 I said I would, but I have 2 more that I bought that I'd like to finish this year before the next one starts: Lisey's Story and Special Topics in Calamity Physics
Christmas challenge: read 1/2, should be easy to finish
A - Z book: I read all but X, so am considering this done
A - Z author: I still have Q, U, and Y. If I consider 25 to be completed, I might be able to squeak this one out.
I think you mean challenges left for 2007. :)
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, these posts, my own and other people's, at the end of hte month are my favorite! I love seeing how much everyone read, getting to click reviews I missed, etc.
Don't feel bck about your 7 books, I had a lower month when the school year started. AND I was reading the gigantic Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell.
The A to Z challenge looks fun. Do you know if it'll happen again for 2008?
dewey: thanks, I fixed it.
ReplyDeleteJon Stange and Mr Norrell scared me when I saw how big it was! good for you.
The A - Z? It wasn't an official challenge anywhere, but I think Joy started it. It's more of a personal challenge; that's why I made my own rule and said if I did 25/26 I would feel completed. It was fun to do.
