A Daring Book Challenge

4. PLUS----Want to work on reading them all? It's an ongoing challenge so take all the time you need. You can do this and still do one of the above.

A few more general guidelines for the challenge:

• Crossovers with other challenges are allowed.


• Audiobooks are allowed.


• For the ongoing challenge, books you've read in the past count, you don't have to re-read them.


• For the first 3 tracts, all books read must be read AFTER June 15/08. I'm choosing option 2--any 9 books in 12 months.

I'm doing option 2--choose any 9 books to read over 1 year
