I love your key! Why can I never think of something this smart?!
Thanks Rachel, you've my permission to borrow the idea ;pI just find listing them this way more convenient. Because I can easily see which challenges I need to update when I finish a given book.
Exactly. That is one of the hardest things I find about the challenges...remembering which ones need to be update.Thanks! I think I will borrow it. :)
We have a few common to-reads this month Amy, it will be really enjoyable to discuss them through the month. I keep my tracks in a notebook that I carry around always, where I usually write bits and pieces when an idea comes to my mind about a story or something. But this might be smarter :D and definitely easier to track.

Last month I debated starting one of these lists, but ultimately decided to make my list on a sticky note I kept on my computer at work. And it worked well when I was there...

I really like your last challenge. I don't recognize it as one of ours. Did you get it from another group or come up with it yourself? I wouldn't mind borrowing the idea for myself or even talking it over with Lisarenee and Sashana as a challenge to post for all members. What would you think of that? Totally your decision on both!
It a challenge from another group, The Romance Readers Reading Challenges, though not a lot of the books on my list are strictly romance. I bet a lot of members here would enjoy it, but I don't know the protocol for borrowing from other groups.
Hmmm. I might have to contact them and see what they say. I think our members would enjoy it too. It would also be a good way for all of us to read some older books and not just newer ones, which I tend to do in this group quite a bit. Not complaining by any means, but I still like finding older "gems" and raving about them. :) Thanks for the info, Amy.
I like the lifetime challenge too. I'll have to remember that one after I finish some of the ones I already have.
