So…here I am, taking on my very first online, book challenge…After checking a number of the available ones, out there, I finally settled on this one -mainly in the hope that it will help me manage my book addiction & tackle the resulting, ever-expanding number of unread titles on my bookshelves (see relevant entry below) 😆

I won’t be joining the Yahoo group available for this purpose, so my two lists (main & alternate) for this year’s edition will have to be posted here:

Main
Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything
Sleep with Me
Lolita
The Devil & Miss Prym
The Tenderness of Wolves
Twilight
The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox
The Interpretation of Murder
The Lollipop Shoes
Extra Virgin
Nights of Rain & Stars
The Long Way Round

Alternate
The Observations
Minus 9 to 1
Plan B
A Girl’s Guide to Vampires
Death by Chocolate
Twenty Times a Lady
A Short History of Nearly Everything
Ps. I Love You
In the Dark of Night
Full Dark House
Love in the Time of Cholera
Goodnight Nobody

You can also find the banner -with links to both the challenge homepage & this entry- in my sidebar, throughout 2008.

Having never done this before I’m still (ever-so-slightly) fuzzy on the rules & not sure of whether participants are meant to write reviews after reading each book. I will, however, try to do that & post my comments under “Books”. You can click on the relevant category to access them, at any given time.

Anyhow, I guess that’s all for now. Let the games begin & happy reading to all…
