You can do it! :D
Thanks for the vote of confidence, Maggie! At least have a quite a few months for them.
wow, you're ambitious! I've read: 1,2,8,9,12,13,21,22 before
and I want to read: 3,4,5,6,11,18,20,23
I think we have the same reading taste. I like your list of read books too: Flowers in the Attic, Gordon Korman!! and too many more to mention.
Have fun.
wow, that's a long list! You've never read The never-ending story? Do it now!:)
ps:I like your blog, I've been looking for bloggers who like me love to read children/YA books.
Valentina - no, I never have! I've always meant to, so I was glad that the challenge gave me a good reason to finally do it.
And thank you! I'm always happy to find children's/YA lit folks, too!
