      I would love to join this book challenge. However, I don't have a blog. I also heard about it from J. Kaye's Book Blog.

      Thanks for posting my link. I hope that you don't mind, but I posted an article on Gather.com and mentioned/linked to your challenge and blog. I do a challenge there called 50 Books in a Year and just posted that I had completed the challenge.

      Let me know if you are not okay with that:) They have a great bunch of readers there.

      I heard about your challenge at Stella Matutina and it sounds like a lot of fun and a great way to ease back into reading outside of the trains again. So here I am! ^-^

      I found your challenge over at J. Kayes.
      It's a little late for me to be starting, but what the heck...I'll give it a try.

      I'll try to get my list posted in the next day or so, and then I'll come back and link it.

      Thanks!
