As of April 1, 2008, I will begin blogging about my quest to complete the 50-books reading challenge! It’s funny, I’ve promoted reading contests among the kids I work with, but I haven’t participated (as a reader) in any type of reading challenge since Book It, in elementary school.
50 books is a lot in a year, even for a voracious reader like me. I’m always reading children’s literature, for professional reasons, so it will be a welcome challenge for me to tackle 50 adult books, well mostly adult. I will sprinkle a few kids’ books in, here and there.
My quest? To read a diverse selection of books, fiction and hopefully nonfiction, which include novels, poetry, drama, and at least one comic/graphic novel. I’d also like to read a mix of African-American, southern American, and possibly, Latina literature.
