The 100+ Reading Challenge will be hosted here this year. Here are the guidelines:
1) You can join anytime as long as you don’t start reading your books prior to 2009.
2) This challenge is for 2009 only. The last day to have all your books read is December 31, 2009.
3) You can join anytime between now and December 31, 2009.
5) When you sign up under Mr. Linky, list the direct link to your post where your 100+ books will be listed. If you list just your blog’s URL, it will be removed.
5) All books count: children’s, YA, adults, fiction, non-fiction, how-tos, etc.
6) If you have any questions, feel free to ask below or email me at jkayesbookblog@yahoo.com. Comments usually get a quicker response.
***Update: You do not have to decided on your books ahead of time. You can add or subtract from your list during the year.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 440 of 440New to these challenges but excited. I think I may have already read this many - luckily my library keeps tract for me and I know the books I have bought and read this year - fun part will be typing them all up for the list.

Loving this challenge, although my reading didn't start off too well this year cos of one thing and another. Hopefully will catch up soon though! Have started my list on my blog :)
Carolyn ~ There is still time!
Wondering if audio books should count or not.
Wendi ~ ALL books count, including audios.
This is so much fun!
Hey, I've just linked up, sorry its so late, but have only just found out about this :p i Had been vaguely aiming to read 100 books this year anyway and think its fantastic that theres a challenge for it!
I hope its alright that i havent written reviews for all of them, as i only created a blog around april and have only been reviewing challenge books so far (although i hope to for more in the future)
At the moment im on 41, hopefully the summer hols will help boost that number :D
Thanks for hosting :) :) :)
Was checking my number and wanted to say I will be completing this challenge this month! I just have to update the list! But WOW over 500 people are signed up to read 100 books a month! That just warms my heart!
I'm excited to start! :)
Yeah!
This will help with my reviewing.
I'm a complete dolt. I've been doing this all along and never officially signed up. I was too lazy to write a post I guess. Good thing I was keeping a record of books read. duh
I'll get to it.
Sandra ~ I've done the same thing myself!
I'm so stoked, I hit my halfway point last night!
This is gonna be fun!
I can't wait to give this a shot, even though I'm fairly certain I'll fall short.
Thanks for hosting the challenge!
Upper West Side Writer ~ Fantastic!
Hayz ~ So glad you joining!
Schatzi ~ Wow! That is great!
I signed up but I am not really sure what url I was supposed to use...I copied my blog's url but I do not think that is correct
I am not sure what link to send
THMS Book Blog ~ I can adjust it for you. No biggie. :)
this sounds like fun but I don't have a URL so guess I can't join. I read about 5 books a week so maybe I could not reach 100 this year anyways but I would like to think about it for next year. Susan L email is garysue@dejazzd.com
Love, love, love this! It's so great to see other people reading as much as I do. Hardly any of my friends or family members read too much! Thanks for doing this!
Kari ~ So glad you are joining! Awesome blog, BTW.
Oops, I'm so sorry I accidentally submitted the wrong link the first time.
Love this idea, so excited to participate!
Hi! I am halfway to 100. If I can finish 100 books, I'll be happy. If 1oo+, the better!
I'm actually participating in a 100+ reading challenge elsewhere, so I might as well join the one here too. :)
Yay!!!! I did it!!! 100 books!!! I'm still going to keep track though, see how many I make it too by the end of the year. Thanks J.Kaye for hosting this challenge.
Witch Baby ~ I was just over there reading your list. Way to go!
Ignore the first link to my blog from Jaede. I thought I had copied the direct URL for the post but must have gotten copy and paste happy and only did the URL for my blog in general.
I've corrected the problem by adding a second link directly to my post. So, you can remove the first one. :)
I swear everytime I turn around I discover something new about the book blogging world. I've been aiming for 100 books since January. I didn't know there was actually a challenge for it! Wonder if my other challenges are hosted somewhere? Thanks!
I think I can pull this off, I need to assess how many I have read thus far and take it from there! Way to go, everyone participating!!!
Hi J. Kaye,
I signed up again for this challenge because my old site got hacked to bits and now I have set up shop here at blogger.
pagese ~ Maybe I could help. What challenges are you currently doing?
Sarojaede ~ I was able to delete it. No biggie! :)
39 books in six months -- not bad, but I'm really going to have to push it for these last three!
Jaggy Flytrap and the Kiggelaria From Planet Nine, that's fantastic!
Okay, I'm at almost eighty books, and I've got two months left. Doing good, just gotta read like crazy. Yay!
I MADE 100 ON 9/23/2009 ENDED WITH 132. NOT SURE IF I LINKED RIGHT TO MY COMPLETED LIST ON THE YAHOO SITE AS I DON'T HAVE A BLOG OF MY OWN, SOMETHING I HOPE TO WORK ON IT 2010. MY LIST IS TOO LONG TO PUT HERE, TOO MANY CHARACTERS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I NEED TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE 2010 CHALLENGE.
(NOT YELLING, CAPS LOCK IS STUCK ON THIS ********KEYBOARD). :)
New blog where you can find my 2009 100 book challenge completed list. http://dollycas.blogspot.com/
