Out of my 13 challenges,I have finished the Masterworks, My Bucket List,and have read all the books for the Young Adult and Creature Features challenges but still have one review to write for the YA,two for the Creatures to say I have completely finished those challenges. I am in the process of reading Charles de Lint's Moonheart and Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas,which will complete the Faerie Mythology, Fantasia, and Book of Ones challenges by the end of this month
Then I will have 7 books left to read to finish off the other six challenges. I want to work hard and finish them all by the end of October,because I am going to have knee surgery - FINALLY - on November 24th,and I need everything off my plate by then,and I still have 19 other books to read for my 12x12 (12 books each from 12 caegories144 books in all challenge on Shelfari) so I have to get cracking!
I am most pleased with the My Bucket List challenge which really made me tackle books I had felt I should read for years. A Canticle for Leibowitz,This Immortal,Tigana,Preludes and Nocturnes,Shadow of the Torturer were all outstanding reads,and only Man in the High Castle and Pawn of Prophecy were a bit disappointing. And at least I have now read them and can appreciate comments or discussions involving them I hate being in the dark! lol.
So glad this RYO is going to be ongoing,I think it is an outstanding success and I am already pencilling in books I want to read next year,and look forward to juggling the titles to fit as many challenges as possible!
