Summer 2012 is all about tackling your "To-Read" list.

Challenge runs from June 1 - August 31.

Read any books that are on your "To-Read" list OLY. There are no book categories.

Pre-game Prep
You have until Thursday, May 31st to add books to your "To-Read" list. You can not read books that have been added during the months of June, July, and August. Don't try to cheat. It's very easy to tell if you have. :)

How to Play:
Once you've finished a book, post a review on goodreads by giving it a star rating and a write-up (even if it's one sentence).

Even books that you don't finish count. Life is too short to read a bad book. If you don't like the book, stop reading it! Give that book its terrible rating and review and move on. :)

Please post only one comment and update using the "add book/author" feature throughout the challenge. (I've created a sample entry for you to use as an example.)

How To Win:
Whoever reads the most books wins.

Prize
Winner chooses our September read.


So...start reviewing your "To-Read" list.
Challenge starts in 2 weeks.
Have fun and happy reading!

Thanks everyone (Li & myself, lol) for participating.

I think you won, girl. (I didn't finish two books.)
