I've discovered this next 2015 Reading Challenge
is impossible to resist.
My reading preferences have proved to situate themselves squarely in England.
This will challenge me to greater awareness as I
note the book's county setting within England.
Thanks to our lovely Brit host of the Challenge at Behold the Stars,
many counties have been listed [along with corresponding book options]
which definitely encourages a wide range of reading and an
increased familiarity with a fav location of mine .
Signup remains open throughout 2015, should you be another
reading fan of England.
Visit the above link for all the details.
They're generously open - the very encouragement needed for me to take on
another challenge for this year of 2015.
Level ~3 ? between 7~12 Let's see how I do...

I am torn. I saw this challenge and also loved the book suggestions based on the counties. I think I'm at RC saturation for now, but this will be one of the first I add if I decide to do more.
I'll be very interested to follow your progress. Go get 'em, girl! :O)
Good luck, thanks for joining :D
I love the idea of a reading challenge, but I know I could never find the time to read a lot. But I do need to commit to reading more than I did this past year.
