2012 Ebook Challenge

 

Sarah at Workaday Reads is hosting the 2012 Ebook Challenge, which I am joining.  

Challenge Guidelines:
  1. This challenge will run from Jan 1, 2012 - Dec 31, 2012.
  2. Anyone can join, you don't need to be a blogger. If you don't have a blog, feel free to sign-up in the comments. You can post reviews to any book site (i.e. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, Goodreads, etc).
  3. Any genre or length of book counts, as long as it is in ebook format.
  4. You can list your books in advance or just put them in a wrap-up post. If you list them, feel free to change them as the mood takes you.
  5. When you sign up in the linky, put the direct link to your post about joining the E-Book Reading Challenge.
  6. You can move up levels, but no moving down.
  7. Sign-ups will be open until Dec 15, 2012, so feel free to join at any time throughout the year.

 I'm going to start out shooting for the Memory Stick level, 50 ebooks.  I'll add the books here as I've read them.







The 2012 TBR Pile Challenge


I've decided to join the TBR Pile Challenge from roofbeamreader.net.  The idea is to start reading all those books you've "been meaning" to read.  The books have to have been published pre-2011 to count.  You have to read 12, but you an pick 2 alternates in case you have a problem getting any books.

If you'd like to join up, just go to the sign-up page.
