message 20: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (blaircaldwell86) When I came up with the challenge I didn't think of a rule for this scenario: a book's title that fits into more than one category. For instance I just read the book Love is a Many Trousered Thing which fits into the "romantic word" and "clothing" categories. I'm guessing we're only doing one category per book?

Sarah | 3273 comments Yeas putting this together took some work. All of the books - except a very few - are books in my home library waiting to be read. It will help clear my bookshelf, but this may be a 2-3 year challenge for me because I also like to read New releases and BOM and other challenges I have. But next year I am really also trying to clear some of my bookshelf.

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Well, it is good that it got you organizing, Sarah, right?


message 26: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments I have already made three A-Z challenges with my books - one by title, one by last name of author, and one by first name of author. My bookshelf is already organized by author last name. This challenge was a way to categorize in a different way.


message 27: by Kat (new)

Kat (riceballkat) | 67 comments this seems pretty interesting too! I'm in!


message 28: by Gayle (new)

Gayle (gretarahikkainen) | 125 comments I'm in! At the current time, I believe I'll go for moderate for a few various categories. Will post as I go along. I know that the non-fiction book I'm currently reading, for review purposes, is going to take me a while to get through. And with everything else that's going on, I just don't have as much time to read as I would like right now (dad has cancer that has spread to all of his organs, folks are selling the farm and moving into town, auction sale is later this month, daughter and fiance recently graduated from college and moved to the Twin Cities, etc., etc., etc.) Hopefully things will calm down soon, but I don't anticipate that for at least another month or more.

So, I plan to give myself at least a year to get done what I want to accomplish in this challenge. But I really like this one!
