Sammi....you have two AWESOME books left on your list...The Mists of Avalon and Outlander....so excited for you!!! AND........essentially you only have to read ONE more anyway...the rules for the challenge are to read 12 books at least to complete the challenge. You are SOOOOO finished with this one!

I'm going to read it, I just can't decide if I'll wait until 2013 so I can put it on my list...

I know there are so many good books to read and just not enough time to read! Pam and I are already talking about our 2013 list too! It's a challenge to narrow it down to 12 + 2.

Sammi, what books are you considering for next year?

I'm going to compile a "LIST" for thought about my 2012 books. I'll get it on here soon...give me a day. I think I've got a good start...but just about all of the books are chunkers....we'll see.....

I know, so many of the ones that I want to put on a major chunker books.... At some point, I will have to think harder about that... I'm not sure it it's a good idea. I LOVE chunky books, but 12-14 chunkers is not a good idea.

It seems like we just keep going for the chunky books! I just finished Mists of Avalon! I have read a lot of chunky books this year, but have loved them all. Can't wait to see the list you are compiling. We have been talking about a lot! lol

It will be interesting to see what Matt comes up with. He'll get us back on track and out of the fluff zone I'm sure. BUT....with fiction the way it has been lately...I'm up for a change. I'm at the point where I'm DYING to read OTHER BOOKS...so I'm jamming my list in now. OH...and the one I have to read for my book club....OH...and the one recommended by Jenni (My Cousin Rachel) which my mom BLASTED through...OH....OH....OH.....

OH! The joy.....
