Harlequin/Silhouette Reading Challenge

I found another reading challenge to participate in. I must be crazy!

All of the books have to be from either the Harlequin or Silhouette imprint. It doesn't matter which one.

The challenge is...

1) Read 1 book with a holiday theme.

2) Read 1 book by an author you never read before.

3) Read 1 book with one of these words in the title - wedding, marriage, husband or wife

4) Read 1 book set in a place you've never been before.

5) Read 1 book with a body of water in the title (i.e. water, lake, river, island, etc.)

That's a total of 5 books for the year.

Here is my list: so far

1)Her Best Christmas-a holiday theme

2)Secret Baby Convenient Wife-wife in the title

3)

4)

5)

Book Resolutions and Chick Lit Book Challenge

Did you make any resolutions this year? I have made some book resolutions. Here they are:

1. Read more than I did in 2008. I only read 23 books in 2008.

2. I will read at least 20 books from my TBR pile/shelf/stack.

3. I will read at least 2 new genres of YA and Cozy Mystery each month.

4. I will keep track of the books I have read.

Sounds pretty easy!

While surfing the blogosphere I found A Novel Challenge blog. This blog is the place to find your next reading challenge. She had listed all the reading challenges available for readers. I have looked through several and decided to participate in a few.

The first challenge I want to let you know that I will be participating in is the Chick Lit Challenge. This is right up my alley! I love this genre and have stacks of books around the house so no buying new books. Yeah right!
