Rereading is one of those things I love to do, but kind of feel guilty about. Join a reading challenge for it, and all guilt goes away! The Hard Core Re-Reading Challenge is hosted by You, Me, and a Cup of Tea. I'm signing up for Level 1, which means I need to reread 10-20 books. Twenty is a bit high, but ten is doable. Especially since I'm using this challenge as an excuse to reread the Chronicles of Narnia this year. I've already got my other rereads picked out, and I'm ready to begin!
What's In a Name? is hosted by The Worm Hole, and is going strong for its eighth year. I had a harder time than I thought finding books to fit this challenge last year. I made it, though, and I'm ready to try it again. I'm also challenging myself to find books that fit the categories from my own shelves instead of the library. These are the categories for this year:
- A word including "ing" in it
- A color
- A familial relation
- A body of water
- A city
- An animal

- A color
- A familial relation

This is my third year participating in the Color Coded Challenge hosted by My Reader's Block. It's always a lot of fun to find titles with colors in them, although some colors are definitely more difficult than others (black, anyone?). I've already got a few picked out, and I'll be scouring my bookshelves for more. Here are the color categories:
- Blue
- Red
- Yellow
- Green
- Brown
- Black
- White
- Any other color
- An implied color

The winter Bloggiesta is this coming weekend! I've been waiting to update a few things on my blog until the next Bloggiesta rolled around. I don't have tons of time this weekend, but I'm hoping to be able to get a few extra hours of bloggy time in on Sunday. Here's my overly ambitious to-do list:
- Catch up with posting reviews on Goodreads
- Clean up my email inbox
- Add my list of Newbery winners I've read
- Catch up on writing reviews (thus far, I have three to write)
- Prepare my blog posts for next week
It would be great if I could get more than this done, but I'm not holding my breath. Mostly, I'm just looking forward to participating in the fun!
