2010 Busy Bookworm Challenge!

Only a month left in the 2009 Busy Bookworm Challenge! How are you doing?

For the 2010 Busy Bookworm Challenge, I wanted to define the rules just a tad to better clarify the purpose of my challenge. As you all know, I am a Busy Bookworm, and I am sure that many of you are as well. But just because we are all busy with life (i.e., family, kids, pets, husbands, wives, fiancees, work, etc.) doesn't mean we have to sacrifice time with our beloved books. The Busy Bookworm Challenge, therefore, is aimed at challenging you to pinpoint the books that you ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, MUST READ before the end of the year. With that in mind, here are the rules:
  1. Make a list of 12-24 books (1-2 books per month, depending on your schedule) of the books that you simply cannot fathom NOT reading. Like, you will cry like a little girl if you can't read these books. (The books on your list can be books for other challenges in which you may be participating.)
  2. Feel free to leave space on the list for books not yet released, or make the list longer if you feel you have the time and energy to commit to these books.
  3. BONUS: Split the list up by which books you plan to read in each month. Get creative: read summery, beach-y books in the summer months or wintery, Christmas-y themed books during the holidays.
  4. Post your list on your blog with the 2010 Busy Bookworm Challenge button (coming soon), and then sign up for the Challenge by commenting here with a link to your list on your blog.
  5. After you've read your designated MOST IMPORTANT books, write a review and share just how wonderful your book was with the rest of us!
Sounds simple enough, right? Again, my challenge is to help you focus on those books that are most important to you this year. Even Busy Bookworms can find time to read at least one book per month! 

Good luck and happy reading!

I don't think I'm going to finish my whole list, but considering I only found out about this a couple months ago I think I'm doing pretty well!
