Dewey’s Books Reading Challenge
January 1 – December 31, 2009
Chris at Stuff Dreams Are Made Of and Robin at A Fondness for Reading are hosting a very special challenge in honor of Dewey from The Hidden Side of A Leaf. Chris writes:
Dewey was such a prolific reader and her reviews were honest, intriguing, and beautifully written. What better way to celebrate her wonderful life than by having a year long challenge in her name!
Dewey’s Books Reading Challenge asks participants to visit Dewey’s blog and peruse her archives. Read 5 books that Dewey reviewed. These can be from any year. To read more and sign up, visit the dedicated blog and leave a comment on the post about the challenge.
