For no earthly reason, I have failed at this challenge. Even with almost four weeks left in the year, there is no way that I will be able to read ten books from my shelves that I will be able to pass along. This should have been so easy. I have hundreds of books that I need to read and will likely pass along when I'm done. But my year has almost entirely consisted of reading books that were review books, reading books I loved so much that I didn't want to part with them and re-reading books I already owned. So...what I thought was the easiest challenge I signed up for, turns out to be one of the hardest. I'm waving the white flag.
It happens. No worries! It sounds like you had a great reading year which is awesome. It's better than putting pressure on yourself to read 10 books that you just cannot see fitting in.
ReplyDelete2011 is another year!

Don't be too hard on yourself.
ReplyDeleteI started reviewing the challenges I signed up for today. I didn't know I signed up for one of the challenges until I read the post and said 'oh no!' out loud.... I forgot an entire challenge.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to post my recap late December but the one I thought would be so easy I did terribly at!
You are in good company - You get 110% for effort with the books you have been reading recently.
I failed this one epically!! I have so many great books and I just need to focus on them for a few months!!!
ReplyDeleteI hear ya. I think I got the YA challenge finished but I lost count and called the white flag on them all. I don't think I'm going to join any this next year.
