Monday Musings: Step Up To A 2012 Reading Challenge
As 2011 quickly comes to an end we slowly begin to welcome the new bookish year with reading challenges galore for 2012. Last year I attempted several and failed in an epic way. I managed to keep one challenge going the entire year on Goodreads though. Hooray!
What reading challenge(s) are you stepping up to in 2012?
This year I’m keeping it simple and sticking to one challenge the DAC (Debut Author Challenge) at The Story Siren. I’m going with the DAC because I totally love finding new authors to stalk and the excitement of diving into a novel with a new voice is a win-win for me.
Here’s a quick reference list of some of the reading challenges I’ve run across this week and a linky to the sign up page for each one.

Thanks! I was looking for a roundup list!

I thought this list would be helpful as it’s difficult to remember who does what these days.

Great list, I see a couple on there I haven’t heard of. Definitely need to check them out!!

I’d love to take part in several of them but it can easily get out of control. LOL Happy Reading!

I’d like to do the Dean Koontz challenge since there are so many of his e-books at the library. I’m also doing two of my own and I like to sign up for a Horror challenge b/c that’s what I usually read most of anyway.

@Midnyte Reader I’ve added the Dusty Volumes Challenge to the list. Thanks for giving me a heads up. Good luck with your 2012 challenges.
