Welcome to the September Challenge! Each task is worth 10 points, and you can also earn 10 points for reviewing books in the What I'm Reading Now thread.
Challenge #1: Back to school My kids went back to school today, and this first challenge is in honor of them. To earn points, your book must be set at a school for at least half of the book. Example: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Challenge #2: "If she could have done one thing to make absolutely sure that every single person in this school will read your interview, it was banning it!" (Can you tell me where this quote comes from???) September 25 - October 2 is Banned Book Week. For this challenge, find and read a book that has been banned. This link contains SOME of your choices: http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/13...
And the last challenge comes right from the Seasonal Book Challenge, because I thought it was so clever...
Challenge #3: SOLVE THE MYSTERY Choose one book based on your solution to the mystery. Libby Librarian was lying on the floor unconscious. There was a ladder across from her, an open door across the room and a very heavy book lying next to her. What happened?
A) She fell off the ladder reaching for the classic leather bound books on the top shelf - Read a book from the Classics Library List http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/34...
OR
B) Someone broke in, knocked her over and ran out the open door when they heard you come in. - Read a book from Best Crime and Mystery Books http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/11...
