People are insanely creative!<br /><br />Kailana: I'll check it out!<br /><br />Melissa: Yes, I will find an older Robin Hood. It's possible I have one from my grandma on my antique books shelf.

I like...Thank you for joining the challenge, Suey.<br /><br />I like the idea of Melissa's challenge. <br /><br />I love Austen's Persuasion but there are very few sequels and retellings of it. The only one I can think of right now is by Regina Jeffers told from the perspective of Captain Wentworth-- haven't read it yet but it's on my TBR. ;)Katherine Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07257141301467724458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-22201021093271333632011-12-01T17:48:37.943-07:002011-12-01T17:48:37.943-07:00I'm just doing Melissa's I haven't fou...I'm just doing Melissa's I haven't found any other ones that have enticed me enough.

Love i...I LOVE your "just say no" button. Love it! And that is my goal for 2012. Like you, I don't seem to succeed with challenges and most definitely get the most out of buddy reads. Our wot buddy read being the most successful for me. I do want to participate in Carl's Once Upon a Time and most definitely RIP. beyond that, I am heavily leaning towards the classic challenge that you signed up for and a Read my TBR pile type challenge. Goal - to not be limited by a list. Goal - to read what a mood calls for. To "just say no" to the many fascinating challenges.ibeeeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222760102843468991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-73088000291961195872011-12-01T15:19:48.995-07:002011-12-01T15:19:48.995-07:00Yay!

The one challenge I have joined so far I had to make unofficial because I can't easily find the books. :( You might enjoy it, though. It is Gender in SciFi and Fantasy: http://cynicalbookworm.blogspot.com/2011/11/gender-in-fantasy-and-scifi-challenge.htmlKailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-24259749620928042112011-12-01T07:08:28.433-07:002011-12-01T07:08:28.433-07:00I've decided to drastically reduce my challeng...I've decided to drastically reduce my challenge entries this year, like you I think I'm over them but they are so fun! I just never finish them which often leaves me disappointed and feeling like a failure lol. So I've got my list of interesting ones and I'm trying to narrow it down =) Good luck!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047372117724219432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-15023075051852012572011-12-01T07:01:49.339-07:002011-12-01T07:01:49.339-07:00Woohoo, another Dean Koontz fan!!
Just let me know...Woohoo, another Dean Koontz fan!!<br />Just let me know which level you picked so I can add you to the list on the challenge page :-) !<br /><br />BTW I don't want to overdo it with challenges either next year. Just the two I created ;-) and maybe I'll sign up for the 100 Books a Year challenge again, seeing how I read so much more this year, I couldn't possibly fail that one, ha!Birgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05307461298661584480noreply@blogger.com
