Let Me Count The Ways Reading Challenge

The end of the year is quickly approaching and it is time to think about 2013 reading challenges.  I still have a few reviews to post before I am technically done with 2012's challenges but I feel confident that I'll get there.  So for my first challenge of 2013 I'm going to enter the Let Me Count the Ways Challenge hosted by Avanti's Place.





There is an audio version too but I will be doing the book version.


The challenge goes from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013

There are levels for you to choose from. You can always move up a level but you can't go down. The levels are:

Living with the parents: 0 - 2000 pages
College Dorm: 2,001 - 4,000 pages
Off Campus Apartment: 4,001 - 6,000 pages
My First Place: 6,001 - 8,000 pages
Condominium: 8,001 - 10,000 pages
Mansion: 10,001 + pages


Who doesn't want to live in a mansion, right?  So that's what I'm heading for.  10,001 + pages.  Let's see if I can do it.

If you would like to enter all you have to do is make a post of your own and link it back to the challenge and then sign up on the link on the challenge site.
