luv2read97's 1010 Challenge

I'm not going to start until January 1st! Also, I'm only setting a goal for one from each category for the year. After that I'll just add them as I read them.

My list:
1. Mystery, Thriller
2. Non-fiction
3.Prize winners
4.YA
5.New to me author
6. Next book in series
7.Looked good @ library/bookstore
8.From TBR pile
9.Found it/recommended on LT
10. Everything else

Not a bad plan. I set up 10/10 and see now I'll probably read many more than 10 in some categories, such as mystery/suspense. Just wonder if I'll get the full 10 done in the other categories.

Good luck!

Thanks to Stephxsu's recommendations from her reviews, I've been reading a lot of YA books and totally enjoying them!! (I don't know how to put a link to her posts!Need to figure out how to do that) Fat Cat and Invisible Lines were awesome. Going to start the sequel to The Knife of Never Letting Go tonight.

Well with me finishing a non-fiction book I have officially completed by 1010 Challenge as my goal was only one from each category. Guess I need to make a new goal so I can continue with the challenge. I think I will go for 10 books in 5 categories and 5 books in the other 5 categories. I think this will be more challenging for me than a step challenge. We'll see!!

Thought I'd post each category separately because of the touchstone changes. Only posting unfinished categories.
