I joined seven challenges for this group already! Fortunately, 3 of them are open-ended and one is just the Goodreads Choice Awards Challenge, which we are already doing for our other group anyway. I think two of them I'm going to finish fairly quickly, then I'm going to try not to join any more for a bit! lol There are so many good ones!






I keep changing my choices as well, that is one of the reasons I have decided to read 10 books in each category LOL. Moreover some of the books are scheduled for buddy reads or are BOTM for the three bookclubs I'm in so it is going to be a nice combination of both reading for pleasure and fulfilling the challenge requirements :)

Anima - That's probably why we have so many of the same reads. We are doing many of them for BR & BOTM for other clubs. :)
I went with 5 per category because there are so many other challenges I want to try!

I managed to read Joyland two weeks ago, and I really liked this book. I'm very interested in your opinion about it.
