Books I'm planning to read...

So I was thinking of some posts to write and I thought I would do one on the books I am PLANNING on reading for the numerous challenges that I am participating in in 2011.

The challenges I am participating in are:

• The Chick lit challenge hosted by Chick Lit Plus
• Off the shelf hosted by Bookish Ardour
• 2011 Debut Author hosted by Story Siren
• 100+ Books hosted by J. Kaye (but you can sign up here)
• 350+ pages hosted by What's your story

I am not going to list all the books for all the challenges because obviously that would be A LOT! and also because I don't know everything I will be reading or even what I plan to read on some of them as of right now....

So....for the Chick Lit challenge I finally have it down to the 10 books I will definitely be reading plus the 2 debut ones that I haven't chosen yet....

1. Beastly by Alex Flynn
2. Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles
3. Perfect Match by Jodi Picoult
4. House Rules by Jodi Picoult (counts also for 350+pg)
5. Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult (counts also for 350+pg)
6. Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard
7. North of Beautiful by Justina Chen Headley (counts also for 350+pg)
8. Dairy Queen by Catherine Gilbert Murdoch
9. The disreputable history of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart
10. Twenty Boy Summer by Sarah Ockler

For the 350+ pages challenge I have 20 books picked out plus the ones above from the Chick Lit challenge that will also qualify.

1. Burned by Ellen Hopkins
2. Glass by Ellen Hopkins
3. Identical by Ellen Hopkins
4. Impulse by Ellen Hopkins
5. Gone by Michael Grant
6. Nevermore by Kelly Creagh
7. Infinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon
8. Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly
9. Little Brother by Cory Doctorow
10. Impossible by Nancy Werlin
11. The Maze Runner by James Dashner
12. Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta
13. Hate List by Jennifer Brown
14. Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves
15. Handle with Care by Jodi Picoult
16. I am number four by Pittacus Lore
17. Immortal Beloved by Cate Tiernan
18. Dead Beautiful by Yvonne Woon
19. Incarceron by Catherine Fisher
20. Before I fall by Lauren Oliver

Those are in no particular order. They will be read by whatever I am in the mood for at that moment. I am going to try and read one book from one challenge and then another book from another challenge and so on. And if books cover more then one challenge, even better! I already own all of these books and these challenges are a great way to get me to read them before reading newly bought books first.

I am not going to list the books I am going to be reading in the Off the Shelf challenge (which I chose to read at least 50). But, if you want to see what those are check out my You Tube video here.

Maybe this post gave you some ideas of books to read for some of your challenges or maybe you discovered some challenges you want to join now. Whatever the case, have fun this coming year and read lots!

Until next time, Have a good "read"....
