Mount TBR 2019: My Sign-up



January 2019 kicks off the eighth year of the Mount TBR Reading Challenge. I still don't feel like I've moved those mountains at all. Once I hit middle-age, I found that I just can't climb like I used to. I'm huffing and puffing my way to Everest in 2018, but I'm determined to keep my goal at 100 books again for 2019. I'll still be dreaming of building a space ship to Mars and planting that flag on top of Mount Olympus--but the challenge commitment is complete with a flag on the peak of Everest.

You're invited to join me in taming those TBR mountains; just click on the link above for the full description and rules.

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!
