Host Blog: Birgit of The Book Garden is hosting the Tea & Books Reading Challenge.
Dates: January 1 – December 31, 2013
Challenge Description:
This challenge was inspired by C.S. Lewis’ famous words, “You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
You may pick both fiction and non fiction books!
Contrary to last year short story collections, anthologies or collected works in one volume are now allowed!
Re-reads will now also be ok (though preferably you should read one of those unread tomes that have been collecting dust on your shelves)!
Last year you had to read 700+ pages but I reduced this to 650+ for 2013 (and no, this is not further negotiable)!
And as a little incentive – books with more than 1.200 pages will count for two books (so theoretically you can read four such super-chunksters to reach the Sencha Connoisseur level)!
Last but not least – no large print editions of a book, please!
Levels:
2 Books – Chamomile Lover
4 Books – Berry Tea Devotee
6 Books – Earl Grey Aficionado
8 or more Books – Sencha Connoisseur

My Plan of Attack: I plan to read at least 15 books (Sencha Connoisseur). As I complete books, I will link to the review post.
BOOKS COMPLETED
A warm welcome to the challenge! I'm somewhere between humbled and freaked and impressed that you plan to read 15 heavy tomes
! Happy reading!!
Thanks Birgit. The reading is the easy part, it's the review writing that I struggle with. I hope to do better with that this year.
