I Joined the 2009 100+ Book Challenge

I posted in January that I had joined that I had joined J. Kaye's audiobook challenge. I mentioned that I had also joined other challenges, but I forgot to actually create posts for them.

This will be for the 100+ Book Challenge. I'm already well on my way, but I am way behind on my reviews. Rather than fill my blog here with book reviews, I plan to post those on my LiveJournal, which had a whopping total of um, one entry until now.

Oh, wait, I'm actually up to three entries on Livejournal. Woohoo.
