RESULTS:

Personal Challenge #1: I will reduce my TBR by at least half. TBR # 145 January 1st 2009 TBR # 81 December 31st 2009

Didn't get it to half but I still got it reduced alot so I'm happy. :) Probably have a TBR reduction in my 2010 challenge as well. :)

Personal Challenge #2: I will read at least 6 non-fiction and 6 classics this year. I read more than 6 Nonfiction so completed hakf of this one! :) I only read 4 classics and started reading one (ebook) so I didn't finish that part of the challenge. :(

Personal Challenge #3: I will participate in no more than 3 swaps at a time. This does not include the Weight Loss Challenge or the two Virtual Boxes I am in. :) Proud to say I did this!! I was never at any time during 2009 in more than 3 swaps! Definitely not doing that again this year but so proud to say I did it!

Personal Challenge #4: I will read at least 6 new authors this year.Accomplished this one easily too read more than 6 and found a few new favorite authors like Wendy Roberts!

Personal Challenge #5: I will catch up and/or finish all series that I had started prior to January 2009. Well I think I was really overdoing it with this part of my challenge LOL I didn't catch up and/or finish all series started before 2009 but I did catch up/finish 18 series and got a huge chunk read from alot of others so I consider this one successful even though I didn't complete it. Series reading will definitely be another thing I do in 2010.

It's a New Year and it's time to start my new list of books I'm reading!! So here goes. Also at the bottom is the A-Z author Challenge I am doing. I will bold them as I finish them! :)

Okay I am going to do 2 challenges this year. First of all I want to read 200 books in 2008. That is almost twice the number I read this year (would do twice but not sure what I will read by end of year so this is good enough). I am also doing the A-Z challenge with mainly new authors. (What I mean is that I will do all new authors unless I just cannot find a new author with a particular letter).
