I don't have that many in my house, thankfully, but I still have way too many I've never gotten to reading. Good luck with yours!Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-49939512887066326672015-01-29T23:52:24.065-06:002015-01-29T23:52:24.065-06:00I see what you mean, Kara.

The challenges actually help me with that a bit. When I can't decide what to read, I have some ideas already set up to guide me. But thanks! I tried to pick more general challenges this year than the last so my options would be more open.Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-47378984365492409972015-01-29T23:48:11.220-06:002015-01-29T23:48:11.220-06:00That Classics Club business is pretty dedicated, s...That Classics Club business is pretty dedicated, so I'd say sticking with that is wise. And Robin Hood = fun! I saw a fairly new book about him at work yesterday...Will in Scarlet. It's a Mark Twain Award Nominee for MASL for the next school year. So, if you want a kids' book to throw in to your reading, maybe try that one?Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-1673006838478122652015-01-28T07:36:12.256-06:002015-01-28T07:36:12.256-06:00Hannah, thanks so much for stopping by my blog and...Hannah, thanks so much for stopping by my blog and commenting. Let me know how your reading works out. I've been working on my TBR pile too, although in my case it's a shelf.

I'm such a sporadic reader and choosing my next book to read just kind of depends on the moment and what sounds good. Some weeks I'll speed through several books, some I barely read one, and some weeks will go by with no books at all! I'm kind of a crazy-odd reader I suppose. Nevertheless, I'm in awe of those (like you! :) who can plan their year like above and stick with it! Yay for you!<br /><br />As for the poetry and tea posts, I love that idea! Will absolutely look forward to reading them. Two of my favorite things! :)Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-57674846039179721142015-01-27T15:09:23.060-06:002015-01-27T15:09:23.060-06:00WOW!

Instead, I'm focusing on Robin Hood this year and have challenged myself to read at least 6 books about him :-)<br /><br />Looking forward to your poetry posts!Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.com
