Is there going to be a challenge for chunky books? I think it would be a great idea to have a challenge for thicker books!

We defiantly can add it in. It was a personal goal to get a few big books done this year but if others are interested I'm in for adding another.

I would really love to have one! I've also seen a few other people around the group mentioning things about big books, so I think it would be a great challenge add.

Now to keep up with them ;)

Yesterday I up dated all the threads except this one because I forgot about it. But next time I'll do it all on here and use the magic of copy paste!

Yeah, I'm all updated!!!

I didn't add my little quick short stories to the challenges.

Anne (Booklady) is my hero! She has come up w the best challenge ever. Or maybe she stole from elsewhere but I'm completely snagging it from her!

This area is to keep track of books that I read that have to do with War, conflicts, genocide, torture... Ancient to present. I think I'll leave future wars out of this ;)
