Read, Share, Enjoy: Classics and More! discussion

What books are you reading for your challenge?

I see the genre list has expanded for this challenge, which is great! I'm not keen on horror or most paranormal, so those would have been hard categories for me to fill!

I'm hoping to use our group reads for this challenge, as well as classics from my A-Z challenge. I'll fill in any holes with 'random' choices.

That's what I plan to do too.

This sounds intriguing; can somebody please point me to a link where the allowable genres are laid out? I would appreciate it.
Thank you.

Hi Natalie, The genres are on the main page of Read Share Enjoy. If you find a genre missing that you think should be included, let me know. The main idea is to try books from 12 different genres. I look forward to seeing your list as it develops. Always a great way to get new reading ideas!

For the past while GR hasn't been showing the challenge info on the home page for this group when I visit here; but it is under the subheading 'challenges' on the right.

ahh that's right. I did move it so the book discussions would be easier to locate. Thanks for the correction.

Here is the link as well.
