I can't wait to read your review of Ender's Game, which is supposedly the book most often stolen from middle school libraries. My older son Don read it when he was around your age and told me I absolutely had to read it, too. I did, and I could see why he said that.
That's a lot of challenges, but I have no doubt that you will complete them all, and in record time. You have some wonderful books listed. I can't wait to see how you liked them - especially the Terry Pratchett books!
OH HOORAY! I'm so happy you are joining so many challenges! It truly adds to the fun of reading, doesn't it!?!
Welcome to the YA and First in a Series Challenge. I'm sure they will provide some great adventures! :)
I'm glad you are joining in the sci fi challenge. I look forward to reading your reviews.
Everybody--
I love reading challenges and it's not only fun reading the books but also reading everyone else's reviews!
