First Challenge: 101 Fantasy Reading Challenge

With due pomp and circumstance, I am signing up for my first book blogger challenge. It's all very exciting. I was surfing around trying to figure out the world of reading challenges and finally, heavens be praised, I found the site A Novel Challenge. I actually found several challenges I want to join but this is the first I am ready to join because it was so easy to copy and paste a list of books. Many of these books are ones I have had on my TBR list for a long time. Oh, and I just borrowed The Graveyard Book from the library on Thursday. Quelle chance!

I can't imagine the hours of work it took to put together this list and tally the votes. But my nerdy side is also envious of the time the ladies at Ink and Paper and A Bibliophile's Bookshelf spent elbows deep in book titles and authors. The list is quite impressive; I plan on keeping it for future reference.

Anyway, this is the list of books I plan on reading:

COLLINS, Suzanne – The Hunger Games
SNYDER, Maria – Poison Study
SHAKESPEARE, William – A Midsummer Night’s Dream
GAIMAN, Neil – Coraline
CARROLL, Lewis – Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
CARD, Orson Scott – Ender’s Game
GAIMAN, Neil – The Graveyard Book
BARRIE, JM – Peter Pan
VERNE, Jules – Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea
CHAUCER, Geoffrey – Canterbury Tales
KAY, Guy Gavriel – Tigana
MARTEL, Yann – Life of Pi
GABALDON, Diana – Outlander

Can't wait to get started!
