SOME OF MY MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK RELEASES FOR MARCH 2012

The Highlander Reading Challenge 2011

Posted by Lori On Friday, December 03, 2010
This will be the first reading challenge, I have ever hosted. It is a challenge to read 20 sexy Highlander Novels for the year 2011. It doesn't matter if you cross read and review with another challenge, that will be left completely up to you. Cross-genres (ie: immortal highlander, time traveling, shapeshifting highlander, etc...) will also be allowed. The 20 books should be read between Jan 1, 2011 through Dec 31, 2011. Any books read before Jan 1st will not count.





Just Copy and Paste

Sign Up Details:
            • Please make a post on your blog about participating in this challenge.
            • Place your name along with your blogs name below in Mister Linky's first box. Then your blogs url link in the second box.
            • Place The Highlander Reading Challenge 2011 banner in your side bar using the code provided, so that others may join if they wish. (You may modify size if need be)


Please keep in mind, this challenge is purely for fun. Don't be fretting over how your reviews are written or the time frame you are given. You and your reviews are not going to be judged. Just enjoy your books and post what you thought about them. That is good enough for me. Hell, perhaps through you all, I will discover new highlander novels and authors. Thank you for participating and have fun.

LunaMoth said...

id love to join this but all the highlander books ive found tend to be romantic or erotic >.< and those are not my genres (even though higlanders are dead sexy) hope you enjoy the books though!

Lori said...

@ LunaMoth - I completely understand. Either someone likes the genre or they don't...I don't think it can be forced. I am the same way about other genres as well. So no worries. :) And YES!!! Highlanders are sexy. Thank you for commenting letting me know your reasons. I do appreciate it.

This sounds great! I jus signed up and will be posting about it here in a bit. I'm glad that the reads can work on other challenges as well. I think I'm doing 4 challenges, the most I've ever done. I'd like to actually complete one for once.

Madame D said...

I've just ordered Karen Monings Highlander series so that's a start. I'm also looking in to Heather Grahams books. Should be fun :D

Nora said...

I was wondering if the highlander books also have to be published in 2011 or is it just read the books in 2011? Thanks!

Lori said...

@ Lover of Romance - I am glad you are excited, I am too. Thank you for participating.

@ Leetid - Thank you for participating.

@ Sharyla - It makes life easier to work with...I know it can be difficult to decide which challenge to place book in when the genres have been cross bred. Good Luck and Happy Reading.

@ Crystal ♥ - What's not to love about Highlanders? They are yummy...well the sexy ones are.

@ Laurie (BittenbyParanormalRomance)- Thanks for participating. I am sure you will succeed in completing the challenge.

@ Madame D - KMM's Immortal Highlander series Rocks! You might try Julie Garwood books as well.

@ Nora - The books could have been published in the time of the highlander.There is no time limit on publication..The challenge is to read 20 of them for 2011. Thank you for participating. Happy Reading.

Kathryn @ The Kat's Meow said...

And I know with just what series I'll start! Happy Reading!

meggerfly said...

I'm not a blogger but I thought that I'd try to read 20 Highlander books this year anyway!

Nora said...

Another question; does every book we read for the challenge have to be reviewed?

thanks!

Lori said...

@ Nora - It is preferred, so that others can view your reviews, learn of new Highlander novels, and share opinions with others. But, it isn't necessary. This challenge is more of a personal challenge not a competition. I just want everyone to enjoy themselves with it. :)

Nora said...

Okay, thanks! I'm trying to review them as best as possible, but I'm reading two or three at a time and its hard to do a three-book review entry :P

BLHmistress said...

Highlanders are sexy, this should be fun.

Jenn said...

Um is there a place where we post the reviews or just blog like normal?

Jenn said...

Are we supposed to be adding the reviews for the challenge anywhere?

ruby95660 said...

Sounds great! I'm all signed up.
But quick question, is there somewhere where we're suppose to add the reviews we wrote? Like another Mr Linky or somthing?

ruby95660 said...

Oops =] Nevermind. I think I found it.
