Challenge: Read the minimum number of ebooks for your chosen level.
My Level: DVD Read 25 ebooks
Time frame: January 1 to December 31, 2012
I did this challenge last year and met my challenge of 12 ebooks in early December, but proceeded to read three more by the end of the year, bringing my total number of ebooks read last year to 15. That's pretty shabby! The thing is, I love my ipad, but I'm still reading from my pre-existing TBR of paper books, plus it's my personal policy to buy new books only if I can't find them at the library first. I also bought a lot of author signed books at the RWA literacy signing in June, so that made up for a lot of my new books bought in 2011. I anticipate reading more and more new releases on my ipad this year, so hopefully I can double the number of ebooks I read.
I'll keep a running list of the ebooks I read throughout the year in this post.
1. Tides of Passion by Tracy Sumner
2. Wife by Wednesday by Catherine Bybee
3. The Bro-Magnet by Lauren Baratz-Logsted
4. Conor's Way by Laura Lee Guhrke
5. Forever Mine by Delilah Marvelle
6. Capturing the Silken Thief by Jeannie Lin
7. The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan

I'm like you. I usually only buy books if the library doesn't get them. And even then I tend to wait until they're available for inter-library loan. I prefer a paper book in my hand, but since Chris bought the kindle for me I have downloaded about six books since then, four of which were free reads. *g* I wish you the absolute best of luck with all your challenges this year!
ReplyDeleteBrandy, it sounds like we share a similar book-buying-borrowing policy. It's cost-effective this way, right?
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the challenge well wishes!
