I'll be participating in this one. Not sure of my level yet though. I'm going to attempt medium. I'll pick a word(s) closer to the start of the challenge when I have a better idea of what books I'm likely to read.

[Julia]

I'm in a couple of other groups and so I'm going to go with 'Very Easy' - I don't have a book yet, but I'll look for one and post at a later date.

I think I'll go with Easy since I'll be having a lot of testing for school during March

[Iesha (In east shade house at...)]

I think I'll try for easy.

This challenge does last until June, you know. ^_^

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far. I'm glad to see interest in this challenge!

Does this Book count? It has Flowers on the Cover.
I have a Book that I think I can Read for this, but how does this work, Lura?

That's fine. I'm not intending the restriction on the Very Easy difficulty to be terribly strict. As long as *you* think the cover fits as a Spring scene, it's fine. ^_^

[Teresa, The One Who LOVES to Cook]

I do, most definitely, because I think of Flowers as Spring. My Mom had her first Daffodils come out today. She cut them and put them in a Vase.

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Well, okay then. Looks like you found your book. ^_^

[Caru]

Sorry but I can't do this anymore, I have testing and other things :/

No problem. I'll remove you from the list of participants. Good luck with your tests!

Oh, and if you find out you can do it after all the tests are done, you can always rejoin. ^_-

[Teresa, The One Who LOVES to Cook]

After we read the Book, what do we do? And also, do we start reading it on March 20th?

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Just post here that you read the book, thereby completing the challenge. You can read it anytime during the challenge: 20 March through 20 June.

You can start it earlier, so long as you don't finish it until after the challenge starts.

[Teresa, The One Who LOVES to Cook]

There will more Challenges, right?

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Oh, yeah. Definitely. I'll probably do a 'Read the Season' challenge for each season. I have ideas for several other challenges as well. ^_^

CRAP! I forgot about this! I still have four books to read. Thankfully, I still have almost a month left.

Forgot AGAIN! 8 days left and 3 books to go!

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

Found two short e-books and read them in the past couple of days, so I just need to finish Wings of Redemption by the 20th! Shouldn't be a problem as I'm halfway through already. ^_^

[Lura, The One Who Loves to Write]

And finished!

Did anyone else actually do this challenge with me??
