Take Another Chance Challenge

I just can't seem to help myself. I'm joining two more challenges today. One doesn't start for 2 months... does that make it better? lol

Take Another Chance Challenge is being hosted @ Find Your Next Book Here.

Because of the enthusiasm for the first Take A Chance Challenge, I decided to create a new set of challenges for 2010. This year, the challenge will be called Take Another Chance. Like last year, the challenge is all about taking chances with your reading by finding books to read in unusual or random ways. Unlike last year, I'm offering different levels of participation and a longer time frame to encourage greater participation and decrease frustration.

For more info, rules, or to sign up visit Jenners' sign up post.

I'm going to sign up for this challenge at the Moderate Gamble level, but I am hoping to do all of the challenges.

Challenge 1: Read Your Doppelganger
My last name is Pierce so I am going to read Wicked Under the Covers by Barbara Pierce.

Challenge 2: Blogroll Roulette
I went to my Google Reader (I have it set to only show blogs with new posts) I entered 25 as the max on Random.org and it gave me 22. At the time that I did this, the 22nd blog with a new post was Moonlight to Twilight (it's an adults only blog). After much perusal of Ms M's blog, I finally settled on one (no easy feat with all of the juicy stories to pick from). The book I picked is A Hunger Like No Other by Kresley Cole.

Challenge 3: 100 Best Book
I used the 100 Best Romance Novel of the 20th Century list. I picked The Nonesuch by Georgette Heyer.

Challenge 4: Prize Winner Book
[nothing chosen as of January 5, 2010]

Challenge 5: Title Word Count
I got 4 when I use Random.org this time (5 was the max). I had already started a book when I did this and that book happened to have 4 words in the title! So the book that I read for this challenge was When the Morning Comes by Cindy Woodsmall. {my review of When the Morning Comes}

Challenge 6: Genre Switch-Up
I've read a lot of different genres at least once. One I have not read is westerns. After a bit of searching and comparing, I have decided to listen to Hondo by Louis L'Amour. My library system has it.
