2008: Challenges – 2009 Support Your Local Library Challenge

Another challenge from J.Kaye! This one is the 2009 Support Your Local Library Challenge (click to join). There are three options for this challenge:

• read 12 books from your local library in 2009
• read 25 books from your local library in 2009
• read 50 books from your local library in 2009

Visit J.Kaye’s site for the rest of the rules!

While I do like to support my local library system (which is a pretty good system!), I need to limit myself because I have literally hundreds of books on my shelves that I haven’t read.  So I’m going to stick to the 12 book challenge!  The list will be built as I go.
