[Lisa Kay]

Good question, Mary! I'm not planning on reading them one after the other. Just as long as you match them up by the end of the year.

[Lina]

Susan, love your antonyms!

[Jex]

Cool idea. I might take a stab at it after the beginning of the new year. Too many challenges to try to finish at the moment :-P

[Mary X]

I'll do it and I'll start with easy.

Starting 11/1/11

Pair 1: Water/Dust (earth)

Waterbound 12/11/Shaking Off The Dust 1/2/12
/

[Susan (susayq ~)]

Thanks, CaroB!

[Lisa Kay]

Oh, I like Tropic of Cancer/Lord of the Desert

[Mary X]

I'm going to listen to Brave New World by Aldous Huxley soon. Any antonym suggestions? I don't have anything in my TBR that works. I guess something with Scared, Afraid, Coward, Old etc.., Or even Universe for World?

[Lisa Kay]

Well, Mary, for the opposite of brave there is always - LOL!

It has been ages since I read anything by Sidney Sheldon - and I haven't read this one, but he wrote one called .

Do you read Harlequins? If so, isn't bad - and it is a quick read.

[Lisa Kay]

Mary, for the opposite of "new":



the opposite of "world" - black hole?

[Mary X]

You know the Virginia Wolff book popped into my head last night and then I forgot about it again. Thanks for the tips. I'll make a not of them.

[Lisa Kay]

Don't you just hate that? Happens to me all the time.

[Mary X]

I'm going for Are You Afraid of the Dark. My library has it on CD.

[Lisa Kay]

Oh, good! Let me know what you think. My library has it too. ☺

[Mary X]

They had Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf too but I'm not a big play reader. Since I can't count the video starring Liz Taylor-I will go with the Sidney Sheldon book. I like a good mystery on audiobook.

[Lisa Kay]

Great, Gen!

Thanks Susan! It was fun making this list too.

I'm trying to read a mix of modern classics and my favourite genres, otherwise I just end up in a reading rut!

[Lisa Kay]

Great list, Kat! I may have to steal from it.

[Lisa Kay]

LOL! Love it, Barbara!

[Kat]

Lisa Kay wrote: "Great list, Kat! I may have to steal from it."

Steal away! If I'd used my wishlist as well as my TBR, I shudder to think how long that list would be!

[Susan (susayq ~)]

I've figured out that looking at other people's lists for challenges only adds to my TBR list cause I end up finding books I want to read LOL

[Kat]

Me too Susan! I've made a solemn promise to myself to buy NO MORE books this year, but it's painful!

[Susan (susayq ~)]

I can't make that promise to myself, Kat ROFLOL In fact, I went shopping this morning and bought 7 books for $13. I had given myself a $10 limit and talked myself into the 3 extra cause there were 2 Kim Harrison books that are on my TBR list. My daughter just looked at me and shook her head and told me I was sad and had no control :)

Look at the heel on that last book. Whoa. I'd fall on my face!

I hate heels. Give me flats over heels any day. I made the mistake of wearing heels to my high school graduation and I spent the whole ceremony barefoot. Never again!
