Joining the 2010 EW Summer Books Challenge


For some reason I never seem to be able to complete challenges. I don't know if it is because I get too busy or if I need a spreadsheet or what, I just stink at them! But Julie over at Booking Mama has one that I think I can handle, The 2010 EW Summer Books Challenge. Click on the title for all the details....I am definitely reading The Passage by Justin Cronin and This Body of Death by Elizabeth George, so I should at least be able to achieve Polliwog level. Thanks for thinking up a great (and manageable) challenge, Julie!!

Have you read the Outlander Series yet? Join the Challenge!

Come and join the challenge to read (or re-read) the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon before the seventh book, An Echo in the Bone, comes out in September, 2009.

This is one of my all-time favorite authors. I have read all of the books once and am thrilled to join this Challenge because it is a great excuse to read them all again. And if you have never read them let me just say that you are missing out!!! They are fantastic, it is no wonder the author has legions of devoted fans. Do read them in order:

* Outlander

*Dragonfly in Amber

*Voyager

*The Drums of Autumn

*The Fiery Cross

*A Breath of Snow and Ashes

You can find all of the Challenge information by clicking here or on the logo on my left sidebar. There are prizes folks! So come and join us.....

This Challenge was created by Michele at A Reader's Respite and Amy at Passages to the Past.

Diana Gabaldon's website is here.

About Me

My photo
New Hampshire, United States
Bibliophile, Anglophile, Traveller... I have been an avid reader all of my life, since I took the Dr. Seuss Dictionary away from my Mom when I was less than a year old because I wanted to read it myself. In college, where I earned my degree in English Literature, I was often asked "What are you going to do with it?" Now I finally have the answer to that question!!! Being employed as a Flight Attendant for twenty years has given me a lot of life experience and, better still, a lot of time to read. I love to travel for fun, too.
