You have some great selections here. I really enjoyed Follow the River, Fortunes Rocks, and I Know This Much is True. I'm still trying to decide whether to join this challenge again this year. I read 9 of my 12 choices last year. Great motivation to work on those stacks!
Hi Les;
Well I decided to give blogging a try, though I find myself rather lost right now. I just need to spend some time here playing around until I get it right.
All of the choices you mentioned have been on my TBR for years, so this is a great chance for me to try and read them. I figure what's the worse that can happen, they can't kill you for not finishing the challenge and maybe I'll actually clear out some of my oldies.
Hey! :) I just signed up for this TBR Challenge and saw your name. Now I need to get my list together...hmmmm.
