Outdo Yourself Reading Challenge 2012

2012 Outdo Yourself Reading Challenge

(**Disclaimer: I joined this challenge last year but I am doing it again this year. The 2011 list is first then 2012**)
Here is my page for the challenge, a place where I can keep track of the books I am reading this year. I will also have a link to the reviews as well. I am doing level I'm On Fire! (16+ more books than last year)
Again, here are the details and levels and where to join:

Hosted by Book Vixen
Details:
  • Runs January 1, 2012 – December 31, 2012 (books read prior to 1/1/12 do not count towards the challenge). You can join at anytime. Sign up on The Book Vixen’s blog.
  • The goal is to outdo yourself by reading more books in 2012 than you did in 2011. See the different levels below and pick the one that works best for you. Nothing is set in stone; you can change levels at any time during the challenge.
