John of The Book Mine Sethosts this wonderful challenge and you do not have to be Canadian to join. It is my favorite book challenge out there and I have been participating every year from the beginning. I’m not about to quit now.The challenge started on July first, so I a little late signing up.
The challenge is the same as before, to read and review 13 Canadian books. Each participant gets to decide if a book qualifies for the challenge or not but basically if it’s by a Canadian author, is about a place in Canada, or takes place somewhere in Canada, it qualifies.
I will keep track of the books I read for the challenge below:

This is the original ARC Challenge That I created in 2010,I hope all of you ARC Readers will join me again in 2012 for the ARC Reading Challenge. I welcome old and new participants. I don’t know about you, but my ARC pile is way too big. The only change this year is with the levels.
Note: I use the term “ARC” loosely,any book a publisher or author gives you with the expectation that you review it, counts for this challenge.
The Levels
Level Bronze: .a. All of us who have or will have less than 12 ARCS must read all of the ARCS we have. Note, that if you have 11 ARC’s and then receive a 12th one you will be bumped up to catagory b.
b. All of us who have or will have 12 or more than 12 ARCS must read and review at least 12.
To sign up, leave a direct link to your blog post about this challenge. Please leave a comment as well.
You Can join this challenge at anytime throughout the year.
You don’t have to make a list of which ARC’s you plan to read, but you can if you want.
If you choose a lower level, you can always change it to a higher level if you like. However, you cannot go from a higher level back down to a lower level.
Crossovers with other challenges are allowed and Audio-books and ebooks are allowed as long as they are ARC’s.
Read the books and review them on your blog. If you don’t have a blog, you can post your review on sites like Powells, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, etc.
