The Blonde Diaries

The Flashback Challenge will run from January 1, 2010 – December 31, 2010. If you’re super-excited and want to reread a book before that, feel free, and let me know. If many people do so, then I’ll do a December challenge linky post and you can all link to it here. Otherwise, we can hold them over to January.

You can sign up for the following levels:
Bookworm – Up to three books
Scholar – Four to six books
Literati – Over six books

Within these levels, we have mini-challenges! These are:

1. Re-read a favorite book from your childhood
2. Re-read a book assigned to you in high school
3. Re-read a book you loved as an adult

Thus, if you sign up for the Bookworm level, you could ostensibly choose to read one book from each mini-challenge. Or you could choose to do none of the above (though, granted, not sure what you could have possibly read that does not fit into either childhood, high school or adulthood).

Also, would just like to make clear that this isn’t specifically limited to books you loved reading previously and want to reread. It could also be a book you don’t remember enjoying. Or just don’t remember reading. It might be interesting to see how your perceptions may have changed.

Ok. So I am going for the Bookworm level right now. If things go well I might bump it up to the Scholar level. My books are as follows:
1. Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret by Judy Blume
2. Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
3. Can You Keep a Secret by Sophie Kinsella
