I've got a bit of shy streak, but Amber has gotten me involved in some groups which should help me overcome it. I do find that I have a hard time keeping up with all the discussions, but it's a goal of mine for next year to be more involved in my groups
^_^ I'm glad to have helped you out Ms. Evans! ^_^ I hope we both do well with our reading challenges in this upcoming year, you with your 25 and my 1 or more books a week until the end of the year.

We are a chatty group so it can be hard to keep up on all the posts, but you can usually just read the most recent ones & go from there.

Cruising right along. Just got number three done. I might actually make this goal after all.
that's great ms. Evans! I'm already on my 9th book in my read 1 or more books a week until the end of the year and it is the first Sonja blue novel I've read since I read Nancy A. Collins Sunglasses after dark a few years ago and it is pretty good.

great job ms. evans. Btw, thanks for liking the kid zone site on fb. I hope you enjoy it. Btw, didn't know what the L in lk evans stood for until you liked the page and it was lesli. I have a best friend named leslie. :)
LOL…I felt bad using Lesli cause it's spelled so oddly. It's why I used L.K. for a pen name. Though not terribly original, it's at least easy to remember instead of Lesli without the e. Get's confusing for people sometimes. :)
oh okay. ^_^ well lesli is a good name though. I actually though L.K. Stood for Lady Kat as it was a fantasy type name. :)
Since these are really short, I'm counting them as one. Plus, 2 of the authors (D.Z.C. and Zachary Jernigan) are not new to my list. I've become HUGE fans of theirs, so I won't keep adding all their books to this reading challenge.To read all 3 reviews, check out my website:
Or else, here they are:

:( I read a book outside my challenge (again), but I couldn't help it. It's been staring at me on my to-read list and I could ignore it no longer.Oh well. I won't count it, but boy did I enjoy it.

I think of the challenge as a guideline rather than something that has to be followed. It's your challenge, so count it or not as you please, but I would count it if it was my challenge.
In any case, glad that you enjoyed it!

Thanks, Leslie :) I told myself when I signed up that only SPA or Indie authors would count and only new ones (ones I hadn't read yet). I really want to support them, so I'm trying to stick to what I told myself in the beginning. I think I can still pull it off even if I cheat every now and again ;)

Maybe you could add a second category for all the other miscellaneous books you want to read...

That's a good idea� I might have to do that.

I just signed up for my first reading challenge. In 2014, I will be reading 25 books all by Indie authors. I've not set a list yet. I hope to discover as I go and I want the freedom to switch it up. I also will be completing a review for each one and will post it on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ as well as my personal blog.
I'm really excited, and I hope I can offer this group a few choice reads. By the way, below is a link to my blog which will be updated after each read.
1. First one complete. It was The Avatar of Calderia by David Echeandia.
