The TwentyEleven Reading Challenge: Review Indexes

Well a little bit later than I was hoping for (ie I forgot! ) I’ve posted the links pages up for each of the categories.

They’re pretty plain at the moment, with just the MrLinky up on each section. I’m going to eventually put some info on each of them, but for now I’m going to use this as central point to find links to each page and a guide for how best to add your link.

Links should be left in the following format:

Your Name: Book, by Author (Blog Name)
Your URL: Direct Link to Review

So:

Your Name: Paper Towns, by John Green (My Book Blog)
Your URL: http://www.bartsbookshelf.co.uk/2010/07/11/review-paper-towns-by-john-green-4/

Click on the title of each category to go to that categories reviews page.

To YA or not YA…
Okay, this one works like this… Tend to read more Young Adult than Adult Fiction books then read one or two adult fiction titles, vice-versa if you don’t tend to read much Young Adult.

…With a Twist.
This one focuses on sub-genres, read a lot of chick-lit, then try a paranormal romance! Fantasy? Why not give some Steampunk a go, like a bit of Space-Opera in your Sci-Fi then pick up a military Sci-fi book. Like your Contemporary Literature, give a Young Adult Contemporary a chance. Well hopefully you get the idea!

Hot off the Presses.
Read a book published (in your country) in 2011? Then it counts for this category.

It Wasn’t Me! (aka Bad Bloggers*)
Books in this category, should be ones you’ve picked up purely on the recommendation of another blogger count for this category (any reviews you post should also link to the post that convinced you give the book ago).
* Bad Bloggers: Is hosted by Chris of Stuff as Dreams are Made on.

Show it Who is Boss!
Tackle that overflowing T.B.R. pile! Books for this category must be already residents of your bookshelves as of 1/12/10.

Bablefish.
Read books that are translated from a language that is not your own.

Will-Power? What Will-Power? (aka: The Henry Ward Beecher Memorial.)
You know that quote I have in my blog-header… “Where is human nature so weak as in a bookstore?” Recognise yourself in it? Then this is the one for you! Bought a book NEW during 2011? Then it counts for this category. Second-hand books do not count for this one, but, for those on book-buying bans, books bought for you as gifts or won in a giveaway also count.

Mind the Gap.
Need just one more book to compete that duology/trilogy/series then read it for this one! (Obviously as this is for that final book you need to complete it, then you can’t read two books from the same series! And it clearly can’t be your first or penultimate read!)
Because not everyone reads a series in order, this is for the last book you need to read, not necessarily the last book in the series…

Back in the Day.
Re-read an old favourite or two for this category.

Way Back When.
Read books that were published before you were born for this one, whether that be the day before or 100 years prior!

Slim-Pickings
Got a novella you want to read? Then this one is the one for you! Any books between 90-150 pages count.
