I only just joined, but I found this reading challenge a while ago. I will update my list as I go. My friend & I are going to randomly pick a challenge instead of going down the list. We may end up continuing into 2016 with this list though!

Seeing as how my friend has pretty much ditched the challenge, due to 2 small children & having no quiet time, lol, I thought I'd catch up with everyone else instead of just randomly picking a challenge.
So I've actually picked out all my books. I endeavour to be more prepared come 2016!

Had to update my list, as unfortunately some titles aren't available in my country on the Kindle, nor where they at the library :(

You're not alone in dipping into the list as you go along. There are a few others here working through the list in the same way.

Good luck with the challenge. ;-)

Thanks Cait! As I'm doing the challenge with a friend we have our own system & she has 2 small children so there's no way she could read a book a week! So I can't jump too far ahead of her. Hope your challenge is going well.

It's good that you've got someone to compare notes with as you work through your own version. I've been trying to recruit people to join me but I've not been so successful.

So far it's going well for me, but I'm reading a longer non-challenge bookat the moment that I don't think I'll get finished by tomorrow so I'll be late starting Week 4. ;-)

It's very handy to have a friend who enjoys reading. I never used to read. Maybe 1 book every few years, always the same author. Last NY I decided my resolution would be to read more so I asked my friend if she wanted to have a little book club. We decided that I would pick a book & we'd both have to read it & then she would pick one. I never would have read the Outlander books if it hadn't of been for her. Now this year we are doing the challenge.
I think it's a bit crazy to read a book a week! Too much pressure! We are definitely taking it at our own pace. If it takes all of next year as well then so be it! If you can't catch up don't worry!
I only came on here to possibly find some people to chat with & get some ideas on books!
