Cori Renn | 18 comments My Husband has given me a challenge: read A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin in less than a week. This book is 807 pages long and I have it in both book and ebook form. He said a week but I really think I could do it in less than five. I start today. Let's do this!

A Game of Thrones

Cori Renn | 18 comments As far as A Game of Thrones challenge, I missed it by a day. It was a wonderful book, just really dense. Not a quick read at all. Still, I might try this again with the second book during the summer when I don't have work.

Cori Renn | 18 comments I have decided to do the ABC Challenge for Summer break (May-August) A-Z plus one that starts with a number. 'The' does not count as 'T'. I will fill in the title when I finish the book. Summer fun here I come!
