Searching for Challenges

Cheryl and I want to know....Is it just us or does it seem like there are fewer challenges popping up out there?  Do you think challenge hosts are caught up in the holidays and just haven't gotten the posts up or....gasp....that there will be fewer ways to feed our addiction in 2013?

Specifically, we're on a hunt for a 100+ Reading Challenge for Cheryl.  She does one every year.  She says she plans on doing that until she gets it done.  We've got to find her one---'cause if one doesn't appear she's going to twist my arm into sponsoring another challenge with, as she puts it, "a real cute badge."  I've got plenty of sponsoring going on.  Really.  Three of my very own (Color Coded Reading, anyone?  How about Vintage Mysteries?  Or tackling those TBR mountain ranges you've got stacked everywhere?  I've got challenges to cover you for that...step into My Reader's Block parlor....)--plus shepherding the Challenge Addicts and trying to keep everyone hooked up with their favorite Reading Challenges (see, Cheryl, I'm working it for you).  If you come across a challenge that will help Cheryl (and me!) out...be sure to let us know!

Oh....and try and make sure it has "a real cute badge," okay?

  1. I'm glad you all are having fun with the reading challenges, however I am taking a break from them this year. So far I have only joined one, and that was Cheryl's fault. She posted about it, and I am still beating myself for joining, shame on you Cheryl...; (

    I am planning on reading only books from my ever growing TBR pile in 2013, (so I suppose I could join the TBR Challenge) and the other books I will be reading our books for Book Tours.

    I have posted my "Reading Challenges Wrap-up" on both of my reading blogs. Thanks for the fun this past year, and HAPPY READING in 2013 EVERYONE.....

  3. My travel budget is pretty much shot these days, so I'm reading my way around the world. Here's my reading challenge: http://www.pslibrary.com/?page_id=2450

  4. Does anyone know 2013 circles for "ghosts"? Even above mystery, I'm all things ghosts! Paranormal itself, no go. One pops up that dictates categories, including vampires/werewolves which I do not do!

    Please comment anywhere you like on my blog, about the two themes. I may consider creating them, March to March. Hey, we need to lighten the Jan-Dec traffic jam anyway! :-) www.CMRiedel.WordPress.com

  7. I conversed with y'all about about lack of decent paranormal circles (ghosts, not vampires) and wanting more mystery. Lo and behold, I'm the hostess of 3 new themes! They're open for sign-ups now. :) http://cmriedel.wordpress.com/riedel-reading-themes/
