Reading Challenge

Gentle Reader, I am participating in This Reading Challenge by the Modern Mrs. Darcy, and I am trying to figure out the books I will read.  I want to plan ahead instead of fly by the seat of my pants, as it were, when it comes to the reading challenge.

1. A book published this year
   1. As it’s so early in the year, I’m going to hold off on this one for a bit and see what’s coming out
2. A book you can finish in a day
   1. Skin Games by Jim Butcher
3. A book you’ve been meaning to read
   1. Secret History of Wonder Woman
4. A book recommended to you by your local librarian or bookseller
   1. Librarian and bookseller friends?  Any suggestions?
5. a book you should have read in school
   1. Lord of the Flies
6. a book chosen for you by your spouse
   1. He’s still thinking
7. a book published before you were born
   1. Sylvia’s Lovers by Elizabeth Gaskell
8. a book that was banned at some point
   1. The Bluest Eye
9. a book you previously abandoned
   1. The Book Thief
10. a book you own but have never read
    1. Oh gosh, there are so many!  I’m going to finish Ally Carter’s Gallagher Girls series
11. a book that intimidates you
    1. Game of Thrones
12. a book you’ve already read at least once
    1. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

 

Feel free to recommend books for the blank spaces, and/or other reading challenges, Friends!
