Challenges

Sooooo. Last year I didn't do anything of these challenge things. But this year I thought I would. So here is a list of all the ones I will do. I'll update the lists as I go.



1.

Please note that I find the girl on this banner extremely creepy.

Challenge details and such.
The books I think I will read for this challenge are:

The Dollanganger Series (because everyone loves FITA, supposedly)
Flowers in the Attic (Finished! Review here.)
Petals on the Wind
If There Be Thorns
Seeds of Yesterday
Garden of Shadows
The Landry Series (because All that Glitters is also the title of a book David Levithan cowrote)
Ruby
Pearl in the Mist
All That Glitters
Hidden Jewel
Tarnished Gold
And
My Sweet Audrina because I like standalones.

2.


Challenge details and such.

I think for this one I'll make a goal of reading 25. That sounds good. I can always increase it later. (And I've already read an ARC or two of debut authors, but I read them last year, so I'm not counting them.)

You're going to have so much fun with this! You totally have to write about some of the books -I can't wait to read your take on them.

Taren: I am glad that you look forward to seeing me rant about and/or praise these books. Hopefully I will get the first 3 Dollganger books soon because the B&N near me has them! Amazing. They never have anything.

Alea: So am I, but the girl on that one looks evil.
