More Challenges!!

Yep, I've decided to sign up for a couple more challenges!! Crazy, I know!! I really haven't been doing very well with the ones that I am currently signed up for! BUT, here's my rationale . . . I'm already planning on re-reading the Harry Potter series AND the August one will help me get through all the others I need to! How's that for great planning!! As for the follow-thru . . . only time will tell! Keep your fingers crossed for me!! Anyways, on to the details of my latest challenges . . .

August Reading Challenge hosted by Pizza's Book Discussion

At the start of August, I will hold a contest to see who reads the most books in August.

The winner will not recieve a prize but will win an award to put on the side of their blog, which I will post at the end of August.

WHEN YOU JOIN THE CHALLENGE, PLEASE POST THIS ON YOUR BLOG ALONG WITH A LINK BACK HERE SO THEY CAN SIGN UP, ALL SIGN UPS MUST BE DONE HERE IN THIS WIDGET SO THAT I CAN DECLARE THE WINNER. ON YOUR POST ADD THE BOOKS YOU HAVE READ IN AUGUST SO I CAN COUNT THEM

  1. Have managed to resist signing up for the Harry Potter challenge, but caved and joined the August one. Wonder why challenges are so tempting to us?

    Good luck on them both!

  2. There is also the challenge to read 30 books in August. I can't imagine anyone reading MORE than that, so I know I definitely wouldn't win!

  3. Alexia561 . . . my theory is that challenges feed our addiction, so we just keep on signing up!!

    J.T. . . . 30 books?!?! I don't think I could pull that one off, especially with just returning to work! I'm still trying to figure out a good routine to fit in my reading and blogging and spending time with the hubby and kids . . . thank heavens for audio books to help counteract some of that time spent on the road!!
