Challenge Complete: Library Books Reading Challenge

Even though my goal for 2013 is to read primarily from my own TBR stacks, I do love the library and I did sign up for a few challenges that are going to require some library check-outs.  My husband and I stop by the library once a week on our lunch hour and then again on Saturday--and there are times that I just can't resist the chanting of the books over on the "New Releases" shelves...particularly the new mysteries.  I also want to support my local library as much as I can.  That's why I signed up for the Library Books Reading Challenge hosted by Book Dragon's Lair.  Reviews were not necessary, but I do them for all my reads, so you will find links to all the library books read for the challenge below.






I signed up for the Middle Grades level which required me to read 18 books borrowed from libraries. I threw in one more for good measure....

    The Man in the Empty Suit sounds interesting and I've got Ready Player One on it's way from my library.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
