I know what many of you are thinking. Not another book challenge. The thing is I want to start reading again and this one seems much easier then the last one that I totally crashed and burned on.
The Challenge:
5: Read a book that does not have "the," "a" or "an" in the title.
10: Read a book that has been featured in Oprah's Book Club. This list includes all the books up until 2010.(Submitted by SCSBC13 winner Erin.)
10: Read a book that takes place in the state where you currently live. If you do not live in the U.S., read a book that takes place in the country where you live. (Submitted by SCSBC13 winner Megan.)
15: Read an epistolary novel, which is a book written in letters, emails, diary entries or other documents. Seethis Goodreads list if you need an idea, but make sure it's actually an epistolary novel first! Goodreads lists aren't verified, so non-epistolary books could have snuck their way on there.
15: Read a book first published in 2013.
15: Read a book with something spooky in the title. (Submitted by SCSBC13 winner Bev.)
20: Read a book with "air," "water," "earth" or "fire" in the title. (Submitted by SCSBC13 winner Gypsi.)
20: Read a book on which a television series has been based (e.g. Orange is the New Black, Gossip Girl,Pretty Little Liars, Friday Night Lights, etc.).
25: Read a fiction book that has someone’s first and last name in the title (e.g. The Story of Edgar Sawtelle,The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Bridget Jones's Diary, etc.).
30: Read two books by the same author. They can be in the same series, but do not have to be. Co-authors do not count (i.e. the author must be the sole author of each book).
35: Read a fiction and nonfiction book about the same topic. (Example: Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and The Woman Who Wasn't There are both about 9/11. Megan planning on doing a whole post with a list of ideas soon, if you care to submit any!)
5: Read a book that does not have "the," "a" or "an" in the title.

The Plan:
5 no "the" "a""an"
title: Grounded by
Angela Correll
This is a ARC that I received so it fits great.
I have been wanting to read this book for a while. This
is a perfect excuse!
10 State where I live:
This is going to take me some time to find a book in the
setting of Florida. I know "Their Eyes's were watching God" but I
already read that book and I would really like a easier book.
This was one of the first ARC books I read. I also read a
few others written like this so I am excited to read more. I want to read each
of these, I just don't know which one will make it.
There are several that I could list here but I really
want to finish this book (I only read a chapter) so this is the one.
I can't remember if this is an ARC or a free copy but
either way I am glad that I can work it here. Yes I could list Frankenstein
here but that works best for the other category.
Another ARC. Yay.
20 TV Series:
This is one is going to take me a bit to find. I might
have something but I have to make sure.
Another ARC, got to love how many I have--not.
Another ARC. I was going to use this as a Epistolary but
when I saw it was a part of series, I figured I would use this one. Then again
I have a few ARC series so this might go back to Ep.
35 Fiction and Nonfiction:
This is going to hard. I have no idea what I would choose
expect dinosaurs. I think I might wait untill after Megan posts about it. That
way I can have a good idea of what to look for.
I am so excited for the challenge. I am hopping that it will help read some of the ARCs that I haven't been reading. *cough.
Are you joining in? What are you reading? Do you have any suggestion for me?
