The ARC Reading Challenge

This challenge is being hosted by me. That’s right, Teddy is finally hosting her own challenge.

The challenge will run from June 21, 2008-September 21, 2008. It will be to help those of us with ARC’s to get in gear and read and review them.

Here are the rules:

1. Make a list of all of the ARC’s that you currently have and/or are on their way to you.

2. If you have:
1-3 ARC’s then pick at least one to read and review for this challenge.
4-6 ARC’s then pick at least two to read and review for this challenge.
7-9 ARC’s then pick at least three to read and review for this challenge.
10 or more Arc’s then pick at least 4 to read and review for this challenge.

3. Crossovers with other challenges are allowed.

4. List the books that you plan to read for this challenge (you can change it at any time, as long as the books you change are also ARCs). You can read the books on your list in any order.

5. Read the books and review them on your blog. If you don’t have a blog, you can post your review on sites like Amazon. Leave a comment on this post with a link to each of your reviews.

6. Be sure to leave a comment on this post with a link to your blog post about this challenge.

7. Since this is my first challenge as host, please let me know if I have left anything out. LOL!

8. Enjoy!
