I do have to be honest and say that I'm not expecting to read very many books. I have 2 weddings to attend and a vacation to NYC coming up, so I'm going to be realistic. And, well, I can't lie - fall TV just started and it is sucking up some of my time. I'll be super happy if I can finish 5 books from now until December 20, when the challenge is done. Here are a few of the books I hope to read:
- Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol - currently on page 70-something
- Kathryn Stockett's The Help
- Lisa Genova's Still Alice
- Allen Kupetz's The Future of Less - my employer recently did a seminar with him and he had some excellent social media tips.
Anything else I manage to read will be icing on the cake. I haven't been in a reading mood lately, and between work, soccer, work, home, friends, work and life, I've just been so busy that I crash at night and forget what I read in the 2 pages I managed to make it through. When I'm not in the mood to read, it's best to let it go and come back to it. I'm thinking this challenge will help me.
One more thing about this challenge. I went to Katrina's blog to sign up, and realized that there are 200 book bloggers also signed up. I had no idea our book blogging community was so large, and now I have some new bloggers to read! How exciting!

I went on a challenge binge and last year a challenge fast. I'm ready to plunge back into challenges, though and this one sounds good.
Great book choices... a group of us bloggers all all ready The Help and there will be a discussion on it on October 26. You are welcome to join us if you like.
