I was really thinking I wasn't going to participate in any reading challenges in 2011 since I was so bad at keeping up with challenges in 2010. But then I remember how much fun I actually had with my 2010 challenges :)
I'm going with estimates here since I was a real slacker BUT 2011 will be better - I swear ;)

Hello and Welcome!
Red House Books is going through a bit of a update!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've always had a pretty clear vision of what I wanted this space to be but I've been detoured from my path by...lots and lost of other people's opinions and ways of doing things...
I'm committed to this little chunk of the interweb but I've also branched out into other places so! Now it's time to think of Red House Books as more of a hub of all things me! And Me is a hell of a lot of book love!
Stay tuned!

How fun! It looks like you did pretty well with your graphic novel and debut author challenges! Good luck next year!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you read a lot of great books and graphic novels this year! I haven't read any of the graphic novels on your list but a lot of them sound interesting. I might have to check some of those out.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list. I have a lot in common.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool challenge! How did I not have any idea that Holly Black wrote graphic novels?
ReplyDeleteI love the Debut Author challenge. It's such a good on to support. And, some of my favorite books of the year were read for this challenge. I can't wait for the 11ers to come out!
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a list! I don't see how you're going to top it in 2011, but I have faith that you will!

You did pretty well on your challenges!
ReplyDeleteYay! Two out of Three completed! WOot woot! I think I only got about half of mine completed.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I was terrible at keeping track this year. Making me try to decide if I really want to join a lot this year.

Kudos! I have decided to check out more books from the library this year (ahh, being poor!) and I need to read more graphic novels this year too. I always have such a hard time finding graphic novels though.
ReplyDeleteWow, you are a reading machine! And you still have time to eat and sleep? Wow, hats off to you!
ReplyDeleteI tried one or two challenges this last year, but alas I didn't finish either one :(
ReplyDeleteGoing to go and check out the Support you local library challenge! I love my library and am there at least twice a week, lol. And congrats one completing 2 or the 3 challenges!

Oooh, I liked that library challenge you particpated in. That sounds like a good idea. Too bad you didn't reach your goal, but you still did a good job at it! That's a lot more books than I checked out of the library in 2011.
