Authors After Dark Convention 2012 Reading Challenge


PhotobucketI signed up for the Authors After Dark convention in New Orleans this year and I can’t wait!!  Many extremely talented authors that I admire are attending and I want to meet each and every one of them.  Pub-crawl, masquerade ball, pool party, voodoo party, tattooing, and of course book signings are just some of the happenings.  All in a nice hotel right on Bourbon Street.  It will be my first time in New Orleans and I’ve always wanted to visit so you can imagine my excitement!!!   You can see all the information about the event here…if you're interested.  

So, to get ready, I’m going to read the series I list here and at least 1 book from every other author attending.  Our friend at Midnyte Reader has graciously offered to host a reading challenge so we can get better acquainted with the authors going to the event.  Anyone can join the challenge so just head over to the Midnyte Reader blog and sign up for the challenge!

Here’s what I am challenging myself to read…  40 books

  4. How is your challenge coming along Kat.
    Mine ... not so good. I have read a few from my list but have not reviewed any. I suck!! If only the challenge was to only read the books but to take the time to write reviews in between work and classes not to mention other books that draw me away from the challenge is tougher then I thought. I should jump on the wagon while I'm on vacay this week. Cross your fingers a hope the lazy slug monster doesn't possess my body. LoL!
