Reading Challenges Galore!

Since I'm planning on reading 100+ books anyway... I might as well join a few challenges to keep me on my toes.

#1 : The Pulitzer 2's

I really wanted to join this challenge last year (when it was The Pulitzer 1's!), but between wrapping up a school year, planning a wedding, and executing a move, I wisely decided to refrain.  This year I'm all in, and I'm looking forward to acquainting myself with a variety of Pulitzer Prize winners (Although I am grateful to have already read The Good Earth, because I have no need to revisit that one!).

#2 : The Chunkster Challenge

Reading "big books" is not intimidating to me, but I want to ensure that I don't fill up my list with lightening quick reads starting in November.  I will be participating at the "Do These Books Make My Butt Look Big" level (six books, 2 at 450+, 2 at 550+, and 2 at 750+).

#3: The Victorian Challenge

I'm modifying this one a bit.  I will try to read one novel by each of the highlighted author's per month, for a total of 12 books.  Many of the authors I have read before, so I will enjoy exploring new works.  A few are on my "should read" or "why the heck haven't I read" list, and it's always nice to check those off!

There are several more tempting challenges, but I think three is enough to get started!  Happy reading, 2012!
