Challenges, challenges....

I pretty much killed this challenge last year, so I upped the stakes to 25 reads. Thank you Bookish Ardor for being the host with the most (dystope?)

Check out the challenge here.
I think the best part of this challenge is that I should be able to complete it just by reading the sequels to 2011 faves. Insurgent, Enclave 2, Blood Red Road the second? Bring it on......
I made a page for challenges so I don't have to hunt through my own posts. Genius!

Nebula Nominees Novellette

The Nebula nominees keep coming and I keep knocking them down! So far, I haven't really run into anything I have found so undesireable that I have been unable to finish it. I realize that some things are not going to be to my taste, and I am not going to beat myself up for not finishing them. The novellettes were not a problem. Also, how cute is the word "novellette"? I read some really great stories in this category. "The Long Fall Up" is simply mind-blowing with the idea that a woman so wants to give birth under her own terms that should would steal a spaceship and take off-knowing that she would be alone for delivery. Wow. "Sooner or Later Everything Falls into the Sea" is another modern fairy tale that I just loved. Seriously, Sarah Pinsker just made the LIST (the list of new authors I have discovered while doing this project).
