2013 Literary Exploration Reading Challenge - Close Enough

Update 1/1/2014: I finished 26 out of the 36 I chose. Not to bad for a year full of children responsibilities and a new job.

It’s simple; you can choose from an easy (12 books), hard (24 books) or insane (36 books) challenge. Each genre links to the Goodreads genre page if you need some suggestions on what to read. We want you to have some fun and explore; hopefully you might find a new genre that peaks your interest. To sign up either join the Literary Exploration book club on Goodreads and talk about your progress with others involved or for the bloggers out there, if you want to add it as part of your blogging experience simply let us know with a link (to your Literary Exploration Challenge page) in the comments below so our readers can see how you are going. Go here to learn more.
