I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

2013 Challenges

It's that time of year again! I'm noticing new challenges popping up for 2013 and thought I'd better get prepared or I'd go overboard like 2012 (over 50? yikes!). I didn't plan on joining so many so I need to be very careful as we head into the end of the year. Dropping favorites will be difficult. Plus I really enjoyed taking time off and plan to do so again in 2013.

Wish me luck!

 ALL open Challenges for 2013


Read-a-Thon/Events

Michelle at The True Book Addict hosts several RaTs/challenges through the year: Winter's Respite, Christmas Spirit, Spring into Horror, FrightFall, High Summer, off the top of my head.
