We've decided to commit to two reading challenges this year at abcreads, but we're going to do them a little differently this year. Rather than write individual posts about each book, we've created pages on the blog for each challenge & will be keeping a running tally of our titles (with a short review) there. We hope our readers will check in periodically & see how we're doing!
Both challenges will be mystery-oriented this year: the Cozy Mystery Challenge, where we'll read 10-12 cozy mysteries (Super Sleuth level) from January 1, 2012 – December 31, 2012; & the Vintage Mystery Challenge, for which we have chosen the theme Golden Age Girls (8 books by female authors OR 8 books with female detectives).
Readers can't comment on these pages, but in our Book Banter forums we've created a "Reading Challenges 2012" thread for you to comment on our challenges & tell us about your own!
