It's time for me to start reading in earnest to see if I can pick the Newbery before the committee. I also have a few more books I want to read before the vote comes in on Monday, January 10, 2011.
In order to challenge myself, I'm going to try and read all the books on The St. Joseph County Public Library Mock Newbery list.
I'm going to list those books on my Are You My Newbery 2011 page and update as I go.
There are some books on the library list that I've already read, so I didn't include those books.
In addition to those books, I have some blog tour books, Harry Potter 7, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and a few other books I want to read. All in all, there are about 70 books I want to read by January 9th! Join me!

You are my reading role model. I can't possibly read all that you do, but I greatly appreciate that you do it.
ReplyDeleteBTW I put a link on my website to your blog. Hope that was okay. As a courtesy I should have asked before doing it. Let me know if that link's okay with you.
Count me in! Do you think we can read so much in two months? ;-)
ReplyDeleteCLee - of course you can link to me! It's my honor!
ReplyDeleteVasilly - of course we can read these! No penalty if we don't, though!
Oh what fun! I'm off to check out the Mock list. I love pre-award reading! (yup, I'm a geek)
ReplyDeletePam, glad you can join us! I always find something new and exciting when I read these titles.
ReplyDeleteI really need to find time to read all these great books. I have so many of them. I will figure out how to read as many as possible. So I am in.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Alyson! I think it's really useful as I always find books that I would miss! Make it your own challenge though, like bookaday, I think that makes a difference to how much you read, because there's less pressure!
