Wish I’d Read That Challenge 2011

My Love Affair With Books Oh, yes, another one. There are SO MANY books that I have been meaning to read for so long, that I thought this one would be great to participate in. This one is hosted by My Love Affair with Books, and is all about whittling down the ever-growing TBR list. Sign me up!

The challenge runs January 1 through December 31, 2011. Anyone (even those without blogs) can join at any time from now through December 31. To do so, click on the button above. (You can also find the complete rules there.) As with some of the others, there are different levels.

  • Curious – Read 3 books.
  • Fascinated – Read 6 books.
  • Addicted – Read 12 books.
  • Obsessed – Read 20 books.

I’m going all the way, shooting Obsessed. Given that most of the books on the list are in series, I think that should be pretty easy to do. Anyway, we’re not required to list what we’re going to read, but I have a few things in mind, so I’m going to share (in no particular order) what I’m hoping to get read as part of this challenge. This list likely will change as the year progresses, but this is what I’d read now if I could.

  1. House Rules by Jodi Picoult
  2. The Host by Stephenie Meyer
  3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
  4. The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson
  5. The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest by Stieg Larsson
  6. The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
  7. The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan
  8. The Titan’s Curse by Rick Riordan

  10. The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan
  11. Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
  12. New Moon by Stephenie Meyer
  13. Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
  14. Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer
  15. The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer
