I’m going to be taking part in Book Drunkard’s “Four Month Challenge.” I thought it sounded like a lot of fun! If you’d like to join in, post over at Book Drunkard, and if you have a blog you can put up a link to your own post where you can keep track of your points!
NOTE: I’m a bit behind, as this started at the beginning of May, so my understanding is that you have until the end of August to get as many points as you can. Just try and beat me! I’ll be updating this post as I go.
