Another What an Animal Reading Challenge?

WhatanAnimalII.2lbdYWnUQGua.jpg

Well, the What an Animal Reading Challenge has almost come to an end (but you still have until the end of June to squeak in a few more books if you need to). It was great to see all the different books people found to read for the challenge! I put LOTS of books on my wish list ;o)!

I’m planning to host this challenge again, with one little change (to make it a little more challenging ;o)). Instead of reading 6 books in 12 months, we’re going to shorten the time limit (or up the number of books). Other than that, the rules would basically be the same.

Knowing that most people who join this challenge are already in a lot of other reading challenges, here’s the question:

Would you rather --
  1. Read 6 books in 6 months July 1, 2009 - December 31, 2009 (keep in mind that a lot of challenges end on Dec. 31)
  2. Read 6 books in 6 months September 1, 2009 - February 28, 2010 (so we’d be skipping the summer for the challenge)
  3. Read 6 books in 8 months July 1, 2009 - February 28, 2010
  4. Read 8 books in 8 months July 1, 2009 - February 28, 2010
  5. Read 12 books in 12 months July 1, 2009 - June 30, 2010
  6. It doesn't matter, I won't be participating again anyway
Let me know in the comment section below!

I'd like to participate again as well. Six books in six months.

Sandra said...

I have no preference and will participate in whatever is decided. This one was epsecially easy for me, I'd love to do it again.

Sounds fun, but unfortunately I am up to my ears in challenges right now. I think it sounds great, though and will keep up with everyone on the challenge!

Animal Reading Challenge? First I've heard of one, but sure makes me happy! Have a new book, Stray Affections, releasing this fall starring dogs (and snowglobes and second chances)! YAY! Will stay tuned to your blog to learn more about "what means animal reading challenge." I've been so busy writing, I've barely had time to read lately, but I'm due for a reading bender!

Randi, Emeraldfire, and Sandra - glad you'd like to do it again.

Rebecca - I *totally* understand the "up to the ears in challenges" ;o). Maybe next time...

Charlene - Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned - I'll be posting full details soon ;o).

Hi! I would love to participate in your next animal reading challenge--any number of books/months is great. Animal books are some of my favorites. My book club is doing a summer reading challenge (dog books) starting June 21st and running through the end of summer, September 22nd. Head over there if you have room for another challenge!

I loved participating in this challenge so I definitely want to do it again. I like 6 books in 8 months - 7/1/09 - 2/28/10, but I'll be participating in whichever way we go.
