50 Novels in a Year
bySee RobAroundBooks.com and my post here for details on this challenge!
Here is where I’ll track my progress and list my planned books to read (it will probably change as I go). Start date for this challenge is October 21st, 2008, so I have until October 21st, 2009, to finish!
(I’ll mark which language it was in after I start reading since I don’t know what kind of availability I’ll find).
