2nds Challenge 2012 (FINISHED)

ETA: I'm officially finished this challenge as I signed up for the first level to read 3 books and have completed that.  I will now consider the challenge completed, however, I will continue on and see how far I can move up through the levels.  Books read listed below.

ETA: June 7 - I have finished all levels having read 20 books and will now continue adding the (and more) titles

This challenge is hosted by Katy and sign-ups are here.  A year long challenge to read either 2nd books in series or second books by authors you've only read once.  This easily fits in with my goals and I already see books on my shelves that fit the bill. 

These are the levels:
  • Just a spoonful - Read 3 books that are 2nd in a series or the second time you’ve read the author.
  • A few more bites - Read 6 books that are 2nd in a series or the second time you’ve read the author.
  • A full plate - Read 12 books that are 2nd in a series or the second time you’ve read the author.
  • All you can eat - Read 20 books (or more) that are 2nd in a series or the second time you’ve read the author.
I'll choose Just a spoonful to start with and read three as my main goal but we'll see if I can move up to higher levels.
