Karol I 'll start my challenge on December 1st and it will go through 2008. It is a multi-faceted challenge!

First, I participate in 3 book discussion groups. I don't read every book that each group selects, but I do read most of them. Challenge #1 is to finish each book that I buy or borrow from the library for these discussions. This will end up being about 20 books, I imagine.

Secondly, I want to read at least one book a month from my current "To Read" list. Sometimes I get so caught up in the book discussions that I ignore some of the books I've wanted to read for a long time.

Looks like I'm committing to 33 books between December 1 and the end of 2008!

Karol Wow - I can't believe I've completed my challenge already. Looks like this "challenge" thing is just the motivation I need to get more reading done! I'll have to work on something even more challenging for my second challenge.
