The 2014 First Reads Reading Challenge
is hosted by b00k r3vi3ws, and it goes from January 1, 2014 through
December 31, 2014. The goal of this reading challenge is to read new-to-you authors.
I’m joining at the Lover
level, which means that I need to read between 26-50 books from
new-to-me authors. I’ll keep track of them here. I’ll also link my
reviews to the
list.
***As of 8/31/14, I completed this challenge. I’m going to keep going to see how many new-to-me authors I end up reading!
