*** NEW for 2009! ***

The TBR *LITE* CHALLENGE is a new challenge that is a sort of “sister” to the Original TBR Challenge. It asks you to:

** Choose ONE of the following 3 options:
• OPTION A: read 6 books in 12 months (January 1 – December 31)…your list CANNOT change after January 1st. You ARE allowed to create an “Alternates” list of up to 6 books, though.
• OPTION B: read 6 books in 12 months (January 1 – December 31)… your list CAN change at any time throughout the year.
• OPTION C: create a list of however many books you want to read between January 1st and December 31st, as long as they’re from your TBR list/stacks. You must have at least 3 books on your list.

Other Rules:

• you don’t have to have an actual shelf of TBR books…it can be a mental list
• e-books and audiobooks ARE allowed
• overlaps with other challenges ARE allowed
