Chunkster Challenge

Wendy of Caribousmom is hosting this year's Chunkster Reading Challenge and it has it's own blog.

February 1, 2010 - January 31, 2011


A chunkster is 450 pages or more of ADULT literature (fiction or nonfiction).
 
The levels of participation and complete rules can be read here.
 
Last year I signed up for "Do These Make My But Look Big" (3-5 books) and ended up reading 14 chunksters.  This year I'm choosing the "Mor-book-ly Obese" level and read 6 or more chunksters.

Good luck with this one Nise. I joined too for 2010 (new challenge for me). Have fun!

You read 14 Chunksters in one year?! You deserve some kind of special award. Congratulations!

I keep debating with myself whether to join at the Chubby level - or wait until I have more free time to devote to reading.

I look forward to your chunkster reviews in 2010.

I'm sitting here wondering what I got myself into! I'm not sure how many books I read would be considered Chubby.

Happy Reading in 2010!
