I'm too chickenshee to take big challenges like that. I'm full enough as it is with the ones I'm in. My house is going to explode soon with all the books I've been getting :D I think we should all get a warehouse and just pile them in. har har.

Neas Nuttiness said...

I have yet to take the plunge and join any challenges. Maybe when my grand children have all gone back home.

Tell okbolover that she is welcome to send her extra books to me;-)

Veens said...

ohh.. you reminded me I need to this thing :)

Beth said...

Oh my! You WILL be busy! I look forward to seeing all those reviews! And what an excellent selection of remaining categories! Good luck! I'm rooting for you!

Tif said...

Good luck!!! I need to sit down and see where I stand with all my challenges. Maybe I need to sign up for that August Reading Challenge myself?!?!

Staci said...

I have complete faith in you and I know you're going to finish this one for sure!! :) Nothing like a little pressure ha!ha!

ibeeeg said...

Good Luck!
I think once I clear away a few challenges, I will join a few more.

Jules said...

Good Luck! I was thinking of joining the paranormal challenge, but I just couldn't find enough books to catch my attention. I am signing up for the August Reading challenge to catch myself up in my challenges though.

Park Avenue Princess said...

Best of luck to you J.Kaye! I can't wait to see how you're doing on this one! I also can't wait to join a few of my own this year!

Witch Baby said...

Wow - you are so right about having a lot to catch up on. I know you can do it!!!!

Beth F said...

Good luck!!! I have more than half my 999 challenge done, but it's still going to be rough going.

Andrea said...

Wow and good luck.

MarthaE said...

Good luck J. Kaye. For the witches you might want to try the Rachel Morgan series by Kim Harrison. The first is Dead Witch Walking. I love her side kick pixie, Jinx! I'm on book six right now which is a bit of a mix - new characters I like (a sweet gargoyle!) and a bit too much repitition and whining in this one. These have demons too. Karen Chance's Cassie Palmer series has witches/warlocks, ghosts and vampires and a demon too.
Ghost- I just read Etenally His by Carol North. The review is at YGR.

Bella said...

I love this challenge. I think I shall have to give it a go next year.

I can't wait to see what's in the Fae/Fairies & Elves category. That'd be my favourite.

J. Kaye said...

okbolover ~ I don't know what insane, freakish moment occurred to make me want to sign up, but I did...ugh!

Neas Nuttiness ~ Most of the new ones start at the beginning of the year. You might want to wait to see what's available.

Veens ~ All I can say is I can't wait until challenge is over.

Beth ~ :(

Tif ~ I am going to get my August List sort of ready a day or two before the first.

Staci ~ I don't know...

ibeeeg ~ I know I will...I am so addicted!

Jules ~ Well, I wanted to expand my horizon. I won't be doing this one again next year...lol!

Park Avenue Princess ~ It will be fun!

Witch Baby ~ Double :(

Beth F ~ Did you sign up for both of the 999 challenges or just one?

Andrea ~ Thanks!

MarthaE ~ Harrison is too thick of a book. I need thin-thin-thin ones...lol!

Bella ~ Moning is going to be in there for sure!
