2015 Reading Challenges

Great image from Jeanniejeannie.com 




It's time to sign up for reading challenges for 2015. I'm not going crazy here, I have just chosen two official challenges and two that are just for me.

First, 2015 will be the year I tackle:
This is just one of those books that diehard readers read to earn cred (like House of Leaves and War and Peace). I'm tired of having it on the TBR list. It goes down in 2015. And it may take me all year. I already bought it for the Kindle, so I don't have to lug this monster around. It's on.

My Goodreads challenge will be a realistic 80. Mostly because I am still in love with short stories right now, and I don't always get through a whole collection. Plus, see above. 80 is very realistic.

And so, my two "official challenges":
I pledge to read 5 debut author books this year. I may do more, but I know I can handle 5.
If you are interested, you can read all about the challenge here. Thanks to That Artsy Reader Girl for hosting.

And PopSugar has an ultimate challenge I can't wait to tackle. I'll be using Goodreads and this blog to track this one.

So much fun!!!! Come on 2015!
