Bookie Friends Favorites Challenge 2012




Bookie Friends Favorites ChallengeI know, I know. I'm participating in a lot of challenges for 2012, but I just love them! They are so much fun! I especially like this new one I found... 'Bookie Friends Favorites Challenge 2012'!




Here are the rules:


Challenge starts January 1, 2012 and ends December 31, 2012

1. Write a post on your blog about joining this challenge
Add links to your 5 favorite books
Don't forget to add the challenge button

2. Click on the "Sign Up" tab above and leave the link to your challenge post, not to your blog's home page.

3. Visit the other participants and choose 3-12 books to read.
You can choose them all at once or as you go.
Add the title to your original post, making sure to link back to the person whose favorite it is.

4. As you read each book:
Post a review on your blog and leave the link in the "Reviews" tab at the top of this blog


Five of my FAVORITE books are:

  1. Waterfall (and Cascade & Torrent!) by Lisa T. Bergren
  2. Vigilante by Robin Parrish
  3. Abomination by Colleen Coble
  4. Skin by Ted Dekker
  5. The Queen by Steven James

I know that's really seven, but I'm combining the River of Time trilogy into one... What do you think of this challenge? What are some of your favorite books? Are you going to participate? Please let me know in a comment!


I'll keep track of my progress here.

    I like the sound of several of those, but they all seem to be part way through their respective series. :(

    I am thinking of adding Waterfall to my list of books to read for this challenge. I'm not sure I'll get to the whole series but it does sound good!

    Opps sorry Melanie - that's what I get for having too many blogs open plus watching a movie at the same time. I am in the right place but called you the wrong name. Sorry.
