Sunday Salon - I think I'm a Reading Challenge Addict!

Against my better judgement, I signed up for two more reading challenges that J.Kaye is holding on her blog. Then I decided to host a couple more challenges myself. I'm a huge James Patterson fan, but I've been so behind on my reading that I figured a good way to catch up was to challenge myself. So, that's what I did :) Of course it's not the end of the world if I don't complete the challenges (I still have quite a few going on besides these), but it does help to keep me focused on my reading goals. Is there a 12-step program for challenge-aholics? LOL
As for my actual reading (I really need to stop being online so much so that I can devote more time to reading), I finished "The Summerhouse" by Jude Deveraux - loved it and posted my review. I'm almost finished with "The Lie" by Frederica Wagman. I'll post my review soon - a very strange, but interesting book.
I still have a couple of book giveaways going on. If you want to enter, just click the covers on my sidebar. Both books look great and I'll be getting them to review soon.
I also started a new group on Shelfari for my James Patterson Reading Challenges, please feel free to join us. You can also sign up for the challenges here on my blog, of course.
I hope everyone has a great week. Happy Reading!

Thank you for stopping by and visiting my blog! I always love reading comments and getting to know my readers!
After some careful consideration, I've decided to become an award-free blog. Although I appreciate and am honored by each and every award I've received, your comments and friendship are enough award for me. Thank you all so much for your thoughtfulness.
Due to way too many spam comments, I disabled the Anonymous User comments. We'll see if this works, otherwise I'll have to go back to word verification.

Those challenges can be so addicting. As long as you have fun in the process, that's all that matters. :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great week, Yvonne!
Fellow book challenge addict here. :) I signed up for the Stephanie Plum one, but not the James Patterson one. At least not yet...
ReplyDeleteLol, yes they are fun, I have almost finished all of mine, but the TBR one is going badly
ReplyDeleteMy problem with reading challenges is that I do feel it's the end of the world if I don't complete them, so I've had to stop joining as I was making myself feel so guilty!
ReplyDeleteI am trying not to take on too many reading challenges. I have taken on two this last month, but they are so addictive.
ReplyDeleteWendy - That's what I figure, as long as I'm having fun, what's the harm?
ReplyDeleteCarrie - The Stephanie Plum series is so good and I love it. I needed this challenge to keep me focused. I'm so glad J.Kaye is hosting this one.
Blodeuedd - I did TBR Lite and I'm not doing very well with that one either.
Table Talk - I used to feel that way, but last year I realized I was putting too much pressure on myself.
Vivienne - I tried not to take on anymore, but the challenges I joined were all books I wanted to read anyway, plus some overlap into other challenges :)
