Mommyfaithe Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I know it is not required... I know no one needs a list BUT, I wondered if anyone made one. I always swing from the hip (just like homeschooling ) but I can't think of what I WANT to read now, so I am playing on here instead. So, does anyone have a plan?? Just curious! Last year I got hung up on Dystopian Lit and about 1/2 my books were from that genre. This year, I think I would like to add some good Non-fiction, a few classics and I think I may read through AO Year 11 since I bought all the books, but never set that year up for ds as he had other ideas :) Anyone want to share?

NanceXToo Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I've never participated in a challenge like this before, but I signed up for the one that starts in January. I don't have a list or very specific plan yet but I found myself looking a few minutes ago at the "1,001 books to read before you die" list; so maybe I'll just start picking and choosing from there in between reading ones I know I want to read.

Melinda in VT Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I'm waiting to see if the list of mini-challenges gets posted. I know from past years that I want to leave myself some wiggle room to just grab what looks good, or the new book everyone starts talking about, or the books I get for Christmas, but I'm feeling a desire for some structure. Remember 2008, when people did 8 categories of 8 books each? That's what I'm looking for, I think. But 11 books in 11 categories is just a tad too ambitious. (Unless I had a lot of overlap . . . ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin M Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Check out Novel Challenges which is the one stop place for all the challenges out there. You'll find all kinds of lists and ideas. I have a list of books on my book shelf that I'll be reading this next year. I made up several lists for Mind Voyages if you are into science fiction which will be a mini challenge for the 52 books challenges. Then you have the Nobel Prize literature winners.
