The Clear Off Your Shelves Challenge!
So Swapna is hosting a challenge about which I’m very excited In fact, I’m only more excited about the 2010 Debutante Ball Challenge that she and I are co-hosting. So anyway, she’s hosting a Clear Off Your Shelves Challenge. The idea is to read books that are on your shelves and have been there for awhile, your TBR books or old review books (books you’ve had more than 6 months). She’s not asking you to make a list, though, or hit a certain number of books read. The idea is that a certain percentage of the books you read in October and November should be for this challenge. There’s no mandated percentage, whatever you want. Personally, I’m planning on having 30% of my books in October and November will be for this challenge. Basically I want to try to do review book, library book, TBR book, with a little bit of room for slip-ups.
And yes, I’ll be reading review books like mad until then to make it work.
For more information, to sign-up.

I really need to try to do this challenge. I have so many unread books on my shelves, and the majority of them have been there well over 6 months!

I said that I wouldn’t take on any more reading challenges, but this one just reinforces what I have already planned to do over the next couple of months anyway.
Clearing my TBR in two months is an impossibility, but I’d like to make a start at least. I’m definitely going to sign up for this one.

I’m doing this one too. Luckily I don’t have a lot of review commitments, I just need to finish up the current pile of library books ASAP!
Good luck!

I’ve got one day to make up my mind about this challenge. I really should join because my plan is to read all of my Neil Gaiman books in October and I’ve had them all for well over 6 months. Still, the commitment is getting to me. Good luck with your goal.
