Basic Requirement: Read a book for each requirement. There are several levels. There are a couple of categories I'm not sure about and I'm sure I could read "Outside in" if reviews are required.

I'm going for . . . I'm a little Scared . . . and hope to read 3 - 4 books.

Categories

1. Classics are the new black – read a classic novel
2. It’s a serial thing – you’ve read the first in a series (or even three of them), it’s time to read another!
3. Lost in translation – time to read a book that was first written in another language and then translated.
4. It’s about time! – read a book that has been sitting on your shelf for at least two years! (and haven’t read it yet!)
5. By the numbers – read a book with a Number in the title
6. Weird Science! – read a book that features some form of science – and maybe discover an untapped passion.
7. I just love a good Duet – a book written by more than one author.
8. New Guy in Town – read a Debut book written by a new author.
9. Almost Human – read a book from the perspective of an animal – or an alien – or a robot! (at least feature an ‘almost human’)
10. Chunkster-time! – read a book that is longer 500 pages. (Time to dust off War and Peace)
11. Random Rescue – go to a used book store and RANDOMLY pick a book! (could even be from a grab-bag)
12. Under-Aged Writer – read a book by an author who is not yet 21.
13. Time for exercise – read a book that is set in or around a sport or exercise activity (like yoga or baseball). This can be fiction or nonfiction!
14. Make-Believe - This category is just for YOU! (and anyone who wants to try it!) Here is your chance to let others know what would get you outside of your Comfort Zone!

#10 - Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin (743!)
#12 - Eragon by Christopher Paolini
