If you did join, I know you would fill up your bookshelf in no time! :) I only have a few friends and only 77 books. If you wanted, you could still participate in the JA reading challenge without joining Goodreads. I am sure you will read at least one book from each category this year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12616960523843655153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650768524127186637.post-34911195015219624982012-01-20T18:11:12.148-08:002012-01-20T18:11:12.148-08:00Jakki, I still don't have a Facebook!

Are you doing this challenge?
I think...Hi Monica! Are you doing this challenge? <br /><br />I think the only book I've read with Jane as a fictional character was The Mysterious Death of Jane Austen. And I only read it because I met the author at the AGM, she had me intrigued.<br /><br />I like this challenge because it makes me read stories I might not read otherwise. I'm not a big paranormal or mystery fan. Not much on sequels either. :/Candy @ So little time...https://www.blogger.com/profile/05308027187577034357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650768524127186637.post-90189084711433702812012-01-20T13:59:55.313-08:002012-01-20T13:59:55.313-08:00I really like the Carrie Bebris mysteries.

May read both! <br />I still haven't heard what Compulsively Mr. Darcy is about. :/ As you know, I just finished FDRS, so that completes the modern catagory. <br />I picked up the newest Carrie Bebris book at the AGM and Mary gave me the first one, Pride and Prescience (which Meredith has listed as a mystery and paranormal). I haven't read either yet.<br />Fun stuff! This gives me a good idea of what I'm going to be reading!

That is going to be my "modern" one! :)<br />Saw Robin write something & Guardian does fall under paranormal! <br />Also, I have heard great things about Carrie Bebris's books. I might read one of hers or Tracy Kiely's Murder on the Bride's Side that has been sitting on my nightstand since I finished the mystery before that, Murder at Longbourn.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12616960523843655153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650768524127186637.post-33426059493758862122012-01-18T16:27:12.928-08:002012-01-18T16:27:12.928-08:00I think Robin's books would be considered alte...I think Robin's books would be considered alternate universe, but they might also fit into that category.
