Out with the Old Challenge – Week 2 Recap

Posted on 01 November 2009

So this was week 2 of the Challenge.  I thought my total would be lower this week because Jane Eyre was a beast, but it helped that I read several shorter books around it.  (BTW, Jane Eyre was great!  I am glad I read it.)  Pretty Monsters just didn’t hold my attention, so I gave it up after reading the minimum to get points.

Number of Books Read: 8
Number of Books Not Finished: 1
Total Points: 3875
Books Read:

1. That Summer by Sarah Dessen (1996) – 500 pts
2. A Room with a View by E. M. Forster (1908) – 500 pts
3. Persuasion by Jane Austen (1817) – 1000 pts
4. Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth Scott (2008) – 250 pts
5. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte (1848) – 1000 pts
6. Wake by Lisa McMann (2008) – 250 pts
7. Fade by Lisa McMann (2009) – 100 pts
8. Size 12 is Not Fat by Meg Cabot (2006) – 250 pts

Books Not Finished (and abandoned):

1. Pretty Monsters: Stories by Kelly Link (2008) – 25 pts (I only read 100 pages)

I’ll update tomorrow with my placement. I moved up to 4th!
