Lennox & Addington Library Canada 150 Reading Challenge

I'm participating in the Lennox & Addington Library Canada 150 Reading Challenge  (to be completed by August 31 - one book can count for more than one spot on the list).

Apparently it started in May (based on their May-August newsletter where I found the list), so I'm going to count anything I read from that point on. 

-Read a CanLit book with 150+ pages

-Read a book about a Canadian musician

-Cook a recipe from a Canadian cookbook

-Read a biography about a famous Canadian

-Read an OLA Evergreen Award nominee

-Read a book set in the Arctic

-Read a book set in Canada's West during the 1800s

-Read a book set in the Maritimes

-Read a Canadian children's picture book

-Read a book about hockey

-Read one of CBC Canada Reads winners

-Read a book by a local author

Wish me luck! And if you have any recommendations leave them in the comments!

Better late than never....

I'm joining a challenge... that's right you heard me right. I'm signing up late for a challenge. Even after I said I wasn't going to do any challenges this year, but this one is different. It will help me save money with my Book Budget and get me back to the library (since I pay for a membership at one).

I have access to my local library in my small town for free and I pay for one at the bigger city that I work in and used to live in. So why not get that magic card working. I also love audiobooks A LOT and this is the best way to access them both in CD format and downloaded format via OverDrive.

I'm signing up for Thrifty Reader with a goal of 24 books. I'll list what I've already borrowed since the beginning of the year even though I'm late for the signup. Check out the sign up post and details over at The Book Nympho.
