The Big Admission of Guilt: One thing I found out during this first year at book blogging, is I suck big time at Reading Challenges.
The Current Ones I've decided to do for 2010 (despite my better judgement):
I have joined in the The Four Month Challenge 2010 part two and I so far have 40 points there.
I have also joined in the 2010 Historical Fiction Reading Challenge, and my hopeful and boisterous post with the potential reads of 2010 can be found here.
The 2009 Challenges that I am just going to let pass on by.. and let's just say I tried:
