Challenges - 1 completed, 4 in progress

• completed the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge!
• 2.5 books left for the Irresistible Review Challenge ... ending date is Sept. 1st
• I haven't even started the Lost Books Challenge, but that doesn't end until Dec. (or Jan. - Amy might be extending our deadline - yeah!)
• still working on my 3rd book for the 1% Well Read Challenge, and there are 7 more to go ... ending date Feb. 28, '09
• on track for the Summer Reading Thing Challenge - I'm keeping up with the challenges I committed to completing and have read 3.5 of the 5 books I promised to review - the 5th book hasn't come in yet though, so I may have to bump another review book onto this list
