Countdown 2010



I really enjoyed working on this one in 08/09 and look forward to working on it again for 09/10.

The Countdown Challenge is being hosted by Michelle and runs from 09/09/09 to 10/10/10. The rules are simple...read the number of books first published in a given year that corresponds to the last digit of each year in the 2000s — 10 books from 2010, 9 books from 2009, 8 books from 2008, etc. until 2001. The total number of books required, therefore, is 55.

You don't need to make your list ahead of time...and it can change throughout the challenge. I am a little late signing up for this one...but I've kept a list of books that I have read, so I can go back through September and fill in those that count.

Here is my book list with links to my reviews:

I don't think I understand this challenge....but 55 books sounds great!

Let's see if this helps....you read 10 books published in the year 2010. 9 books published in 2009. 8 books published in 2008. And so on down to 2001 where you read 1 book published in 2001.
