CHALLENGES:
A Victorian Celebration (June and July 2012):
Sadly, I didn't do as well as I'd hoped for this challenge, succeeding in reading only 1 Victorian novel over the course of the two month timeframe (I'd been hoping for three). Book read: A Picture of Dorian Gray.
A Harry Potter Readalong (September through December 2012):
I've been wanting to re-read this series start to finish for some time, and this challenge seemed like a perfect kick-start to get going. I'm aiming to read the first three this year.
Back to the Classics (Ends December 2012):
My first official challenge, Back to the Classics asks participants to read classics from a variety of categories over the course of the year.
26 by 26 (Ends November 2013):
Somewhere between the ages of 23 and 24, I made myself a list of 26 things I want to accomplish before I turn 26. I call this my 26 by 26 list. I'm slowly chipping away at it, too...
The Classics Club (Ends September 2017):
The goal: read 50 classics in a five-year window. I started September 2012 and will go through to September 2017, selecting 50 classics from my proposed list of 75 options.
READALONGS:
Telegraph Avenue (July-August 2012):
Michael Chabon has long been one of my favorite authors, so I lifted my self-imposed Summer of TBR to participate in a pre-publication readalong of his latest novel, Telegraph Avenue.
A Casual Vacancy (September 27-October 11, 2012)
It's J.K. Rowling, folks. Was there ever a chance I wasn't going to read this book?
The Grapes of Wrath (October 2-October 30, 2012)
This is one of the classics on my list for the Classics Club AND one of the last books on my list for the Back to the Classics Challenge. Plus there are gifs and cool people involved. Sign me UP.
