Hi Teneal and Joanne. You will love it here.
Hello, my name is Shelly and I am addicted to challenges. I have only been on gr groups for a few months but just crave more challenges. Thanks for having me.

Hi all! I'm Cherie and I'm also addicted to challenges. It's all Southpaw's fault. I'm a member of her challenge group and she got me hooked. I was stalking her profile and saw another challenge group (!!) so I had to join. :)I'm currently a SAHM to two young boys and we live in CT. I read on average 2 books a week and I don't really favor any genres. I like a little bit of everything. I'm a moody reader so I rarely choose what I'm reading ahead of time. It all depends what I feel like reading at the time.
I'm looking forward to jumping in! :)
Mod
I am too a moody reader and I can't wait for you to jump right in to the challenges.
Glad you could join us Cherie!
Thanks for inviting me to the group Katya. Hi fellow book addicts. I live in the Atlanta GA area and devour books like they are the proverbial forbidden fruit. My taste tends to lean toward PNR, Romantic Suspense, Erotica, YA UF so I should fit in! Oh, my avatar's name is Pepper
Thanks Katya!Hey pat!
I'm game, although having a hard time juggling challenges and review books- but I'll give it the college try!
Hi Guys all you folks from my other groups! Thanks Katya for the invite. Will see how we go, I have way too many groups! LOL, Hiya, Pat! Dawn,etc.This is the first time for a while I haven't done a monthly challenge. I love the buddy reads and usually do at least one challenge a month, depending on how big and hard it is (!)
I've been on Gr for a while now (lost track now) I'm from downunder in New Zealand, was one of a very few when I first joined, but I see theres a lot more Kiwi's and Aussies around now!
I pretty much read anything but have been addicted to PNR and other naughty stuff of late.
Ok folks, let the game begin!
Hi everyone who joined!Glad to see my pals Kathy, Pat, Alana here!
Hi other kinda newcomers -- we travel in packs!

Welcome Pat, Alana and Kathy!
Hi, my name is Cindy! I LOVE reading challenges!
Thanks for the invite Katya!Hi everyone ~ my name is Melissa. I'm from the Chicagoland area. I'm addicted to the reading challenges - just need more time in the day to get more read,lol!
Welcome Cindy and Melissa. Hope you both enjoy the challenges here.
Hi Dawn! I was looking thru the challenges, and they all look fun! ☺
Mod
so many good looking challenges, we'll be dizzy Cindy because I wanted to enter them all.
Hi everyone. I'm Julianne, and I'm addicted to challenges. I really have more than I can keep track of but I just can't seem to say no to one that catches my eye...which is a lot of them. lol
guys this group should be called Challenge Enablers -- you make them all sound so fun we can't say no! But I guess that is the plan.
The challenges are wickedly addictive. I think I need to come up with a challenge of challenges.
Just when I tell myself I should cut down on challenges so I can finish up a few of the many series I've started (thanks to challenges) I find this group! I can't wait to check out the challenges.
Yeayyyyyy Christine joined!!!~katya is doing her happy dance~

Wow, Katya you are like the requitment Queen. Welcome to the group Christine.

I'm another challenge junkie who followed Southpaw here :) I'm Barb, live in south-central PA, work at our local public library, and am mom to a recent college grad and a US Air Force LT. Until I found Southpaw's Crazy Challenge Connection, I never really participated in any reading challenges other than trying to read X number of books in a calendar year. Now ... well, now it's a whole different ball game :)
Waves!...hi all..katya made me join LOL..j/k...i'm not a challenge junky but some of the challenges look very interesting ..thanks for the invite.
Mod
Thanks Dawn and Lizz (or do you prefer Lizz Neill? If so, my apologies!)
Hey all..thanks for the warm welcome:)
Mod
Lizz is fine
*waving hi to Sara* I just found this group not too long ago myself :)
I too stumbled upon this group while looking through GR groups....actually it was Sara's comment that came up on my home page. I also have quite a few friends in this group too!My name is Gina and I am a reading addict and have recently become a reading CHALLENGE addict thanks to my friends Barb, Southpaw, Sara, and some others in my challenge groups.
I love anytype of challenge and will usually join any challenge that presents itself. As for reading...I enjoy literary/contemporary fiction and mysteries. My very least favorite is fantasy but with all of my challenges, I am slowly dipping my toes into that genre.
I will take a look around and see what's what and just jump in as soon as I see what I am able to do with joining late in the year for any yearly challenges. Can't wait to start playing!!!!
Mod
Hope you have a great time with the challenges
Welcome Sarajayne and Gina. You are joining just in time, I have a few new challenges set to roll out in July... bwahhahhahahah
Ohhhhh, you *had to say that, didn't you, Dawn? I was just starting to think I had my July challenges under control!
Barb wrote: "Ohhhhh, you *had to say that, didn't you, Dawn? I was just starting to think I had my July challenges under control!"Me too! And you know I will join them Barb! LOL!! And I have a feeling you will too :)

Most likely ... is there no hope? LOL
Barb wrote: "Ohhhhh, you *had to say that, didn't you, Dawn? I was just starting to think I had my July challenges under control!"I know I know me too. But the inspiration hit and I just couldn't wait for January to roll out a new yearly challenge. July being the half year seemed like the right spot to slide it in. And well I needed another monthly challenge to help out the 6 month challenge and it all just kept building... I felt a bit like Daffy Duck running from the "challenge idea" snowball. I will save the rest of the overflowing ideas for closer to fall!

I know I know me too. But the inspiration hit and I just couldn't..."
And I have some spell out challenges in the works
