It has been quite some time since I have signed up for any new reading challenges, but when I saw this one I figured that I could handle it! My family is not planning on taking any type of vacation this summer, but I definitely will be doing some traveling through literature. The challenge runs from May 22, 2009 to September 7, 2009. There are a couple of options available, but I am going to sign up to be a Beach Bum. I find that ironic because I am known as a beach bum when I go on vacation! The Beach Bum option only requires me to read 3 books and I don't even have to list them in advance. You can go here to sign up yourself if this challenge interests you.
I will list my books below as I read them:
1. Cutting Loose by Nadine Dajani--Completed 6/25/2009 (brought me to London and Miami)
2. Lost and Found by Carolyn Parkhurst--Completed 7/8/2009 Brought me all over the world!)
3. Beach Trip by Cathy Holton--Completed 7/10/2009 (Brought me to a little island off the North Carolina coast)

Traveling via books is my favorite way to vacation! :-)

I joined this one too. We'll bum it together. I have two of my books picked out (sort of) but you know how that goes :)
I want to be a beach bum. I will read if it means I get to go to the beach. LOL. I do love sitting with my feet in the sand and enjoying a good book.
I am so glad that you will be joining me on this literary vacation! Thanks so much for signing up.
Might do it, will think about it
