October Challenge - CHECK OUT A FRIEND'S LIST & GO FROM THERE
I'll be away for two weeks in October, and the last thing I want is access to internet and technology and stuff. Im leaving my phone at home when I leave, so Im abandoning my friends too, not just you guys! So no, no challenge for me!
Mod
But Jess, there is still over 2 weeks left of October ;D
I demand that someone reads The Knife of Never Letting Go which is so amazing its not even funny. Thats the most well written thing of my life.
Mod
I'm going to try to read this one for September Michael...not sure if I'm running out of time yet..lol
Mod
I know, except I have to read one for the bookclub by next Tuesday night, and it's really thick:( I'm going to finish The Killing Hour first, then start The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo which isn't on my TBR list, then Vanish all in 10 days >.<

Have you been eyeing off a book that a friend has read? Are they currently reading it OR is it on their TBR (To Be Read) list and you're tempted to read it too?
THEN this challenge is for YOU! Indulge in your friends list and delight yourself in a book you might have been thinking about, but keep putting off. October is the month to try something new!

“We're all strangers connected by what we reveal, what we share, what we take away--our stories. I guess that's what I love about books--they are thin strands of humanity that tether us to one another for a small bit of time, that make us feel less alone or even more comfortable with our aloneness, if need be.�
