The Blonde Diaries

My Friend Amy’s Blog (click button above) is running a challenge for 2010 that couldn’t be any simplier – buy a book and read it. That is all you have to do. If you want to be an overachiever and buy more than one book to read, well, you are in luck as there are levels to this challenge. I am a book whore but am trying to cut my book buying down a little. I still think that achieving Level 2 will be fairly simple for me to do so that will be my goal for this challenge in 2010.

This year there are three levels of participation:

Level One!
Buy one book and read it before December 31st, 2010.

Level Two!
Buy six books and read them before December 31st, 2010.

Level Three
Buy 12 books and read them before December 31st, 2010.

Options:
To add a little twist to this year’s challenge you are encouraged to choose one of the following options to add to your level.
Indie Option–Make sure the book or books you buy are purchased at an independent bookstore.
Book Blogger Option–Buy only books you learn about on book blogs.

What a year for reading! I actually went through quite a few books because I bought a Kindle and started downloading books. So I am sure I did more than Level 2 but here is what I remember:
~ Natural Blond Instincts by Jill Shalvas
~ Mini-Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella
~ The Cinderella Deal by Jennifer Crusie
~ See Jane Score by Rachel Gibson
~ Bet Me by Jennifer Crusie
~ Misery Loves Cabernet by Kim Gruenenfelder
