I’ve signed up for The GLBT Challenge 2009 at The Zen Leaf. It runs from July 1st to December 31st, so I’ve signed up a bit late, but that’s okay. I still have time to finish the challenge.

Rules/Guidelines:

1. Read 6 books in 6 months in any genre. Books must deal with GLBT themes OR be written by GLBT authors. No X-rated stuff (R-rated is fine, though), nothing that purposely attacks the GLBT community.

2. The challenge runs from July 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009. You may join at any time.

3. Sign up using Mr. Linky below (please link directly to your post). If you don’t have a blog, you can still participate. Just enter your name and leave the URL blank.

4. Each time you read a book, please link to your reviews on this blog. I will put up a post for you to do that on July 1st.

5. You don’t need to choose your books right away, and they can change at any time. Overlaps with other challenges are fine.

6. Audiobooks are also fine.
