SOS: Serious Overload of Series discussion

No Book Left Behind Challenge
Dust off the books that are wallowing in loneliness on your shelves!
Duration: July 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010

Read 6 books that have collected dust bunnies on your bookshelf for more than 5 years...in other words, long enough that you can't remember the last time you actually read, or even considered reading that book. Feel free to complete as many books as you want as quickly as you want, just read a total of 6 by the end of the year.

I've found I'm only reading books to fit challenges, but have come across others again that I think, "Oh, that was a good book...I'd like to read it again sometime." Then putting it back because it didn't fit a challenge somewhere! So, this is my challenge for those, and they'll fit my "goal-oriented" reading style of late!

Dust off those books!

Here are some ideas from rooting around in my actual bookshelves, and will post actual books as I read them!

No Book Left Behind Challenge

Let the great hunt for the seriously neglected begin! :D

OH...now that's a great line!! Can I borrow it??? Please, please, purty please.... ;)

Of course! :)

Let me think about it but most likely I will be joining this one

I will give this a try. I have some that are non-PNR/UF and that is why they have been ignored. I hope thats okay.

Possible Contenders:

Welcome, Awesomevegan! And ☪☠Lizz☠☪, feel free to join at any time!

Want to keep this one very low pressure/maximum enjoyment of other books, and a "free" challenge so even though I'm basically only reading for challenges, still reading a broader range of books!

I've read (and am reading) a couple this month that I haven't read in ages...it's fun to revisit some of these. Lately, it's been providing a nice switch. I've been reading a lot of new PNR/UF books, so switching to something else between the new books works really well for me! Helps "solidify" the world, and I find the next new book more interesting, too.

0/6 (1 in progress)

Possible Contenders:

Ohh...that's one I love and haven't read in ages! Enjoy!

2/6 Completed
(5 extra)
For myself, I'm doing this like "Firsts"...only the first one actually counts each month!

Thanks! It seems to be me all by my lonesome! LOL!

LOL! Yeah, well you finished it. Yay! :)

Yep...and I want to round it out by having at least one per month...so just a little more til I'm satisfied!

I would'a joined in with ya, but if I've got a book that's 5+ yrs old and unread, it's probably for a reason. LOL! Congrats on meeting your initial goal and good luck with the rest. I know you'll get 'um read. :)

It turned out to be mainly me, but I enjoyed this challenge!

Sorry I didn't join ya. Glad you completed your challenge though. :) What cha got planned for 2011?

Hmmmm....haven't really thought about it that much because there are so MANY fun exciting ones out there and coming up!

Where should this be archived as it's completed?

Glad you enjoyed it Judithe, lonely Judithe, LOL.

There's an archive thread down the bottom of all the other threads. It's called ARCHIVE: BOM & Challenges.

The archive thread Sandra mentioned. WTG though! Star of the show! :)

LOL! And this is going...going...gone!
