The 2011 Erotic Reading Challenge

This reading challenge is right up my alley.  and since I've already read a few sexy, erotic books (reviews to come) this year - it should hopefully be an easy challenge to complete.  And now, borrowed straight from the challenge site - The Forbidden Bookshelf (love that name!) - are the rules:

Challenge Rules:

• Pick your ‘heat’ challenge!

• Books can be novella's, novels, or a combination of the two. They can also be print and/or ebook format. 

• Challenge runs from January 1, 2011 - December 31, 2011

• You can start the challenge anytime during the year.

• When you finish your challenge, come back to our "Challenge" page at the top of the blog, leave a comment and tell us who you are, what ‘heat’ level you completed, and if you have a book blog, link your challenge page using Mr. Linky.

• At the end of the year, we will put all blogs who linked to their completed challenge into a magical little hat (i.e. random.org) to be entered into a $20 electronic gift card to a book store!! 

• You don't have to be a blogger to participate! Just email us your challenge level, book list, and a paragraph telling us what you liked/disliked about each book (So we know you read them). E-mail: theforbiddenbookshelf@gmail.com
