My Goal: Rabble-Rouser (6-9 Challenged Books)

I can't believe some of the books that are banned and/or challenged. I think this 2015 challenge will be interesting and it gives me a chance to broaden my reading habits. Here is a list of potential books:

1. The Miseducation of Cameron Post by: Emily M. Danforth
2. Fahrenheit 451 by: Ray Bradbury
3. Blubber by: Judy Blume
4. Lolita by:Vladmir Nabokov
5. And Tango Makes Three by: Justin Richardson, Peter Parnell, Henry Cole
6. The Giving Tree by: Shel Silverstein
7. Fallen Angels by: Walter Dean Myers
8. Staying Fat For Sarah Byrnes by: Christ Crutcher
9. Killing Mr. Griffin by: Lois Duncan

My Goal: Hitchhiker (10-20 States)
I read a lot of fantasy books and books that don't take place in actual states and therefore I am only doing the hitchhiker level, but I still think this challenge is going to be a lot of fun. I can't wait to pay more attention to the setting of my books and keep track of that.

My Goal: To Read All 8 Books in The Outlander Series

This is my first time hosting a challenge and I am super pumped! I really want to take the time to finish this series and now I have more motivation to do just that. I think I'm going to love these books.

The Bookish Report

Here are all of the top bookish stories, blog posts, pictures, and videos I found this past week. I put this post up every Sunday so come back again next week for more bookish awesomeness.

Click away and enjoy your Sunday!

News

*Spoilers are in this article.* Allegiant is apparently going to be split into two movies. I really really don't think that is necessary, actually I think it's a pretty dumb idea.

I'm a fan of tote bags and wish I could own them all. If you are a fan as well then you should check out these bookish tote bags.

If you love to take online quizzes as much as I do then you will enjoy taking How Scandalous Is Your Reading History? I have only read 27 of the banned books on this quiz. I need to work on that.

Blog Posts

For fans of Downton Abbey and Reign... Read My Breathe Away's post where she gives some reading suggestions based off of these two television shows is one you won't want to miss. So many books I now want to read!

Reader/Blogger Wishlist is taking place again on April 14th! I didn't get to participate last time so I'm hoping to this time around. Read this informative post to find out what exactly the RBWL is.
