Another 2012 Reading Challenge I plan to participate in: the 2012 Chunkster Challenge. I really like the name of this challenge.
I recently realized that the book I am currently reading would count in this challenge, so why not go for more long books?
I will be signing up for the Chubby Chunkster level (4 BOOKS).
Each book has to be 450 pages or more in length and must be adult literature. I guess that rules out the last Harry Potter book that I hope to read some day, but I have plenty of other books on my shelves (or in stacks) of that length that I want to read this year anyway.
No audio books or e-books (some exceptions) but I have never read either, so not a problem for me.
Some possibilities, according to my book cataloging system:
The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
The Alienist by Caleb Carr
Blackout by Connie Willis
A Carrion Death by Michael Stanley
A Small Death in Lisbon by Robert Wilson
The last two are barely over 450 and I would like to include a non-fiction book, but we will see.
My choices... reviews will be linked when written
- Winter by Len Deighton (571 pages)
- A Small Death in Lisbon by Robert Wilson
- The Redbreast by Jo Nesbo
- The Coming of the Third Reich by Richard J. Evans
