I would be certainly interested in a 2012 challenge. Looks like I will fall short this year, probably get to 90 by the end of the year.
Had a lot of fun though and read some great ebooks. A lot of indie stuff as well. |

Last night I decided that an Excel spreadsheet wasn't enough for my 2012 reading options. So I created an Access database too. And yes, I enjoy myself too. Besides, I need to keep my MS Office skills sharp. |

I just keep adding more and more columns to my spreadsheet. Includes things like year first published, author's country, pages, genre, library location and call number (if I need to find a paper copy), number of titles I've already read by that author. |

I'm in for 2012. I just did it on my own in 2011, never thinking I'd make it, but wanting the challenge. I surprised myself finishing up 140 so far. |

I did a hundred book challenge a couple of years ago which was enjoyable so I'll probably participate.
I also was sent a lovely book journal from a friend but I never kept up with it. I wish I had now. Might restart that in 2012. |

Nyssa, I think it would be a good idea to put up the thread for people to start posting their challenges so we can get ready for 2012.
