Challenges, Challenges

I swore to myself I would stop with the challenges...but I can't! D: So here's a tinnie-tiny list of the reading challenges I'll be participating in this year :)


The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Book Challenge 2012

"The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was a film released in 2003 based on a graphic novel by Alan Moore (of Watchmen fame). The movie features various classic book characters who all form a League to stop various classic villians from taking over the world.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to read the original book featuring each of the main characters and post a review of each between 1st January 2012 and the 31st December."
