I'm in, however, I only usually read about 50 books a year.. so definitely won't make the 210 mark. But ill fill as much as possible!
Mod
I would like to do this. Can I backdate the start of the challenge, cuz I have read some really awesome books in the last few months?
One other question: I have a list until the end of 2013 with a buddy for finishing up series that we have started but stop with waiting for the next book release among other reasons. We have decided that we will reread the whole series of most of them including the unread books. Can I use books I reread as long as I only use them once in the challenge?
This sounds like alot of fun count me in !
Mod
This sounds crazy, but super fun. I am in.
Fun! I'd Love to!Just a quick question Jessi.
Does our challenge have to look like the one you posted up? With the Category headings?
As I notice that you've listed Top 5 Sci-Fi/Fantasy twice... plus, Sad books - I have a top 5, but I don't really read that many any more...
And - If you have a fav author, can you repeat them in their genre?
e.g Fav Author Brandon Sanderson would be under Fav Author, as well as fav. Fantasy Author??

Does that help a little bit?
I like to point out that on Rule 2 (There are no repeats with the books. There have to be a total of 210 different books when your list is complete) there is apples and oranges in the challenge list.There are lists that you list each book (apples) and there are lists that you list a series (oranges)
If I list a series, say Hunger Games, I can't list any of the 3 books in the series because I have listed all the books under as a series or can I list all 3 books in the series as individual entries separate else where.
Please could you tell how series going to be handle vs books.
Mod
Excellent! Thanks Jessi! I'm Definitely in!

And what happens to series that we get caught up in, but then there's a new release/s in it in the upcoming two years? If you go a little over that fine. It's a 2-yr challenge but if you finished the challenge in 2 1/2 years psshhh the point will be that you actually finished the challenge and some people probably would be able to do that.
And do trilogies count as series? Yes trilogies count as series
What about half books in series-do we have to read those as well to count the series? You can read those as part of the series but you don't have to read the whole series with this challenge. Just one book from the series or however many you like. Also the half books count as books. For example: You like Night Huntress and you count that under "5 Favorite Series". You can list Devil to Pay as a book for that.
Please could you tell how series going to be handle vs books.

5 Favorite Series
1. Mythos Academy - Crimson Frost
2. Dorina Basarab - Fury's Kiss
