My 2018 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge Sign-up

The Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge is hosted by the inimitable Lori at Escape With Dollycas.  Click on the button above to go to the sign-up page, where the details of this challenge are listed.

Below is my tentative list (because I think it will be easier for me to keep track of things that way).  It is not necessary to pick your books beforehand.  Links go to GoodReads for now.  When the read/review is finished, I'll change the link to where my review is - usually another post on this blog.  If 'planned for' with a date/month is after the entry, the book is also being used for the 2018 Monthly Keyword Reading Challenge.

Is that clear as mud?

Well, it's 6:10 in the morning and I'm needing a 2nd cup of coffee, so please be gentle. :O)  Escape With Dollycas & My Reader's Block are great places to find reading challenges (I know there are others, but these are the 2 that come to mind right now.  Oh, and of course, GoodReads!  If you know of sites hosting RC's, please let us know in the comments!

You don't have to pick books before your start the challenge, I'm just hoping that my record-keeping gets a little better in 2018.  I usually get the reading done with no problem, but get behind on the link-ups and such and then wind up letting everything drop.  Trying to do better in the new year!
