New Blog Tour Challenge

I have worked out the details of the New Blog Tour Challenge. I have 21 books in my New Blog Tour Challenge.

If you would like to follow along and read with me, please do.  Also, I would certainly appreciate your comments on the titles after I have finished reading a title and posted a review of it.  This New Challenge is a personal one that I am setting out before myself so that I might finish reviewing the books that I am currently obliged to review, and I thought it might be kind of fun!!  The dates are a guide - if I finish a book early I will start on the next book early and if I finish a book late I'll start the next book late.  I don't want the New Challenge to be so rigid that I fail as soon as I start.  Also, I may add other books in along the way (if I commit to more).  Anyway, please check back over the next nine months and see how the New Challenge is going.  Thank you for your continued interest and support.  Also, I want to note that my baby is due on November 8, 2011, with a c-section scheduled for November 1st.  That right there may put an end to the New Blog Tour Challenge.  Please follow me on this interesting journey to new books!
