I must be crazy because I am adding another challenge to my list of challenges. I love Read, Remember, Recommend by Rachelle Rogers Knight. Looking through the journal I have found that I own 35 books from the lists that I need to read. We won't talk even about the books that made it to my ever growing wish list. I have decided to jump in and join the challenge even though I am late to the party. I love a good challenge almost as much as I love this journal! If you don't own a copy of Read, Remember, Recommend yet, I highly recommend you pick one up!

For now I am going for the Armchair Librarian level but I may move up as the year goes on.
I'm doing this challenge too! I figure that it will be a great way to finally get through some of those books in my TBR pile, although I only have one read for the challenge so far. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you joined! And, you aren't late to the party since the challenge doesn't end till April. Lots of time to read! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading to you!
