2014 Reading Challenges – Part 1

I have going to try to cut back a little bit on Reading Challenges in 2014. Since Great Escapes Book Tours is really taking off I doubt I will be able to read 200 books. With this in mind my first challenge will be the
YOU READ HOW MANY BOOKS CHALLENGE

This year’s host is Gina @ Book Dragon’s Lair

1. Read, read, read!
2. There are several levels to choose from
   Level 1: 100 minimum
   Level 2: 150 at least
   Level 3: 200 or more
3. You may move up a level but not down
4. You don’t need a blog to participate. As long as wherever you link to is public so we can check out your books read.
5. Reviews are not necessary (but there will be a post so you can link up) but a list of books read is. 
6. No need to list your books in advance. You may select books as you go. Even if you list them now, you can change the list if needed.
7. Books allowed: Audio, Re-reads, eBooks, YA, Manga, Graphic Novels, Library books, Novellas, Young Reader, Nonfiction – as long as the book has an ISBN or equivalent or can be purchased as such, the book counts.
8. Individual short stories in a collection or individual books in the Bible do not count
9. Crossovers from other reading challenges count.
10. Challenge begins January 1st, 2014 thru December 31, 2014. Books started before the 1st do not count. You can join at anytime.
11. Please sign up with a direct link so the rest of us can find your list of books read.

I am signing up at Level 2 – at least 150 books.
