This is my personal journal to document the books I've read for this year's 50 Book Challenge. I used to belong to a book challenge community, but I became very frustrated with the way things were being run there. They've recently started to require that members include reviews with their entries, and no longer being in grade school, I have no interest in writing book reports. (If you want book reviews, read The New York Times!) Also, as other friends have pointed out, it's not really fair that people include graphic novels and comic books as part of their book challenge.

So, as I think I've already said, this journal is solely for me to post my reading for the 50 Book Challenge. My main journal is elspethnoir. If you want to know more about me than just what I'm reading, that's the place to go.
