Welcome to the "It's Not Really A Contest" Reading Contest!
- List the title, author(s) and date you finished the book
- Write a brief, one paragraph or so, description of the book you read
- Write briefly about what you thought of the book - your opinion
- Be kind and polite to one another
- No judging - all genres are welcome, from Young Adult to Fiction, Non-Fiction, Religious, Sci-Fi, Mystery, Graphic Novel, Romance, How-To, Cookbooks, whatever
- Size doesn't matter. A Christmas Carol is super short and super great. Brokeback Mountain is really super short and still great. Infinite Jest is well over 1,000 pages and also great. Blog it!
- Hard copy books, Kindle, Nook, on your phone, audio books - all welcome
- If you start a book and it's so bad you can't finish it - it still counts. Blog it and tell us why it was so bad you had to quit. Just date it for the day you abandoned it
- Please invite friends who might enjoy this
- There may be prizes for whomever reads the most, even though this isn't really a contest - we can still have fun, right? What will the prize(s) be like? It depends on my mood when we get to the end of 2015 and whether or not I'm the "winner"
So...starting January 1st, start blogging what you read. If you started it in 2014 (or before!) and finish it in 2015, it counts, so blog it. If you abandon it because it's horrible, it counts, blog it. If you've read it before and just had to read it again, it still counts, blog it.
Legal Jargon:
I'm not a blogger and don't really know what I'm doing. I hope I've invited people correctly, but if not, I'll figure it out and correct it. I, Bill Ervin, will be the Administrator and everyone else will be a contributor, or author or whatever they call it. I may invite someone else to be a co-administrator if the need arises, but for now it'll just be me. Let's have fun!
