2010 Support Your Local Library Reading Challenge
Here is my second challenge for 2010. Since the Lewiston Library has such a great YA section, don't be surprised if you see a bit of crossover with the YA challenge. For those who are curious about it, here are the rules taken from the website:
1. Anyone can join. You don't need a blog to participate.
--Non-Bloggers: Post your list of books in the comment section of the wrap-up post. To learn how to sign up without having a blog, click here.
2. There are four levels:
--The Mini - Check out and read 25 library books.
--Just My Size - Check out and read 50 library books.
--Stepping It Up - Check out and read 75 library books.
--Super Size Me - Check out and read 100 library books.
(Aim high. As long as you read 25 by the end of 2010, you are a winner.)
3. Audio, Re-reads, eBooks, YA, Young Reader - any book as long as it is checked out from the library count. Checked out like with a library card, not purchased at a library sale.
4. No need to list your books in advance. You may select books as you go. Even if you list them now, you can change the list if needed.
5. Crossovers from other reading challenges count.
6. Challenge begins January 1st thru December, 2010.
7. When you sign up under Mr. Linky, put the direct link to your post where your library books will be listed. Include the URL to this post so that other viewers can find this fun challenge. If you’d prefer to put your list in the sidebar of your blog, please leave your viewers the link to the sign up page. Again, so viewers can join the challenge too.
Note: Many of these books you will see do not have a review here, but one found on goodreads. This is because I had to read a large amount of children's books for a class. I did not review them here because I did not wish to clutter my blogs with reviews people were probably not interested in (for the most part), and because my reviews needed to take on a different form then the one I keep here on temporaryworlds. You can find all of these reviews here.
