28-Day Reading Challenge

I'm very excited to begin creating momentum for this reading challenge. I'm lagging behind and my apologies. I've learned not to start a major challenge right after the new year! Luckily, I have 4 precious members as a solid foundation until we get more on board.

On occasion, I will be posting ways to use this network so it will provide value for you. In the meantime, here's to good reads in 2009 that entertain us and move us forward to greatness.

What is your first read of the year?

I've chosen 4 Paulo Coelho books. The first is Warrior of Light, short stories. This is a book I could reference over and over so I purchased this book. The rest of the books are on hold at the library.

They say it takes 28 days to make a habit so if your reading lags behind, that's ok. Add more pages to the next scheduled read so you're still on the mark for 1 book a week for 4 weeks.
