Winter Holiday Reading Challenge


This is the first challenge listed on my new reading blog. I am including the rules that I have copied from Book in Hand Blog which is hosting this.

Rules:
1. The Winter Holiday Reading Challenge will last from November 1, 2008 to January 31, 2009.

2. The theme for this challenge is Winter Holidays. The books that you choose to read must have a storyline that includes celebrating a winter holiday, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, New Year's, etc. (However, the holidays are not limited to just these examples.)You choose the number of books you wish to read.

3. Leave a comment at the end of this post if you want to join in on the fun.Each month, leave a comment at the end of the Winter Holiday Reading Challenge Update post that includes the book (title and author) that you read for that month and the link to your review (if you have one).

4. And finally... Enjoy your holiday reading!

Now all I have to do is list my choices! The decisions were difficult. There were "classics" of the seasons as well as new additions to the list. What to do!

After puzzling over titles, I have come up with these four titles:

1. A Christmas Journey by Anne Perry
2. Candy Cane Murder by Joanna Fluke
3. Christmas Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini
4. Unplug the Christmas Machine by Jo Robinson

The deadline is January 31, 2009 but since all my titles are Christmas themed, I will try to have this finished by December 25. What a better way to get in the Spirit!
