The 104 Book Challenge - 2015 discussion

I am actually hoping to double the 104 this year. but I love this more then the good reads challenge to be honest. I am hoping to get through my to be read pile before buying any new books. And I have been really good about it. I am so close.

I, too, want to get thru the TBR pile before buying anything, but I received several Barnes & Noble gift cards for the holidays so I have to use them, right? ;)

1. Something to Talk About by Dakota Cassidy
2. Night Broken by Patricia Briggs

Sure did get a bunch of Kobo giftcards this year... just bought 23 or so books... guess my TBR pile will be growing! I hope I can keep up. I think it would be nice for once to go to the book store because I actually have nothing to read. I dont even know what that would be like.

I have been reading and reviewing a lot of children's books lately for NetGalley, and have been putting them here because I want my GoodReads Challenge to match this number. So for that reason I think I may be striving to reach into the 300 books range now to even it out.

**ALSO please if anyone actually reads my updates do yourself a huge favor and pickup the Hemlock series. It is so amazing!**

There are some really cool projects. Its quite short but the projects in it are fun. I would say that the projects range in age from 4 and up. So bright and colorful.
