If it is a child whose reading it and involved in the challenge, then that's okay. If an adult is doing read aloud with kids, the book should be geared for the 9 - 12 age group and above and over 100 pages. If adult reading for own enjoyment, then a good rule of thumb to go by "is there some complexity to the story or is it too simple?" If it's too simple, then doesn't count. <br /><br />Totally up to you to decide what you are going to count toward your 52. :) Robin Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07765229264945106765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435844874964791975.post-15238450581416111832013-01-05T08:39:29.158-08:002013-01-05T08:39:29.158-08:00I read 40+ last year so maybe... this year could d...I read 40+ last year so maybe... this year could do this.

The Chunky Mini Challenge is the one I'll avoid. I'm a slow reader and big books take a long time to finish e.g. Les Mis and The Stand.PainKillerVitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14089205036744879534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435844874964791975.post-45628159979120382162013-01-04T08:19:54.635-08:002013-01-04T08:19:54.635-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.PainKillerVitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14089205036744879534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435844874964791975.post-58776137898983752492013-01-01T15:16:47.952-08:002013-01-01T15:16:47.952-08:00If you have a blog and review books, link your rev...If you have a blog and review books, link your reviews to mr linky each week.

You choose the categories and books. A-Z doesn't make much sense for the 5/5/5 since it entails reading 26 books at least alphabetically by title or author. Hope that makes sense.<br /><br />As far as children's books go, here's what I've said before: If it is a child whose reading it and involved in the challenge, then that's okay. If an adult is doing read aloud with kids, the book should be geared for the 9 - 12 age group and over 100 pages. If adult reading for own enjoyment, then a good rule of thumb to go by "is there some complexity to the story or is it too simple?"

For the A to Z Challenge by title, do you read only 5 books for that challenge or do you have to do all 26?
