I'm thinking of doing one (or more ;)) of the sub-genre challenges. I want to challenge myself to read other genres and try to get out of my comfort zone if that is possible, sometimes I really want to read something completely different :)

And of course I'm sighed up for highest level, which means I'm now stuck somewhere in the middle since all my books fall in more-less same subgenres. :P And I'm too lazy to search for suitable books. It's more fun trying to fit a book after reading. *giggles*
Yes, I do that too :) but now I have to fill the gaps. *whispers* Maybe you can downgrade your level in the challenge, nobody will know *conspiratorial wink* I actually make a reading list for each month with planned reading but I never stick to it because I'm a mood reader. Sometimes in the middle of a book I want to read something else and then I don't go back to the previous book *sigh*

That's why I don't plan :P
Only planning I'm doing is that for few challenges I need to read certain number in series. So I 'plan' what series is going to be read during that challenge and then I 'plan' to read certain number each week after roll. :D It's exhausting to plan so much. *snikers*
When I think now, most planning I did was for wheelathon, when I had to choose book with right letters.
I like long term challenges, as I can find placed for books after I've read them. With my reading I like a little bit of planning and then just reading what I feel like.
Wheelathon was the most planning I've done.

I'm off spinning the wheel!

lol...kind of what I do!! I have all these books that I want to read (and I mean HAVE!!! ...in a great big pile!!!) but if I'm forced to read a specific one...I instantly want to put it at the bottom of the pile and find another that would fit :)

We have a 'U'! Yay :)That reminds me, I need to pick up the series again. Charley is hilarious, I'm still not convinced by Reyes though...

Yep, a surprise U, as I'd forgotten Charley called her uncle that.
What book are you up to? I like Reyes.
I will read Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet next. Reyes is quite mysterious, I feel I still don't know that much about him. Maybe I need to read further. I like Cookie and Gareth. I want them as a couple :)Book 7 is coming out tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to book 7 tomorrow. Hoping to get to it ASAP. Reyes is definitely mysterious. It's such a fun series.
