Girls Just Reading (GJR) Challenge 2012

While Alice and I were discussing possible books for our 2012 List Challenge (post later this month), we decided there were too many books we wanted to read and we needed our own challenge. We threw the idea out to Jenn and voila...GJR Challenge was born. We each came up with a list of books to run by each other and then we agreed on 3 off of each our lists; so a total of 9 books for the year.

We plan on reading the book in one month and then doing a group review the following month. Giving us all a chance to read it at our own pace but with a set "deadline".

Feel free to join along with us if any of these books intrigue you.
