Re: The 2012 Reading Challenge

I just figured out I read 20+ books since Oct. Maybe 52 wont be as difficult as I am anticipating.

Right I've started my first book for this challenge. It's The Sirens Of Titan - Kurt Vonnegut.

We'll start a new thread when it's been changed, just to avoid confusion of two threads with the same name.

Continuing to read the Hunger Games which I am almost finished with.

I was incredibly disappointed to discover that I cannot buy the Catcher in the Rye in eBook form. Though I suppose it's the type of book I should have a physical copy of. I never got to read it in high school, so I'm hoping to make that one of my books for the year.

I bought that book a few years ago and finished it in a day. It's a quick read and not a bad book overall - maybe a tad bit overrated.

I've not read Catcher In The Rye either. Everyone I know who has read it, either likes it or absolutely hates it.

 

[dancingpotato]

I read it in high school but I cant remember much of it. Might have to add it to my list.

 

[Aeval]

I should throw some classics on my list too....all I ever read is Michael Connolly, James Patterson, Tess Gerritsen and the like.

 

[Abcinthia]

I'm not going to start any Classics until I've finished Jude The Obscure. That book is taking me ages and I just cannot get into it.

That was a joke, and I forgot. Sheesh.
