2012 Reading Challenges

These are the reading challenges that I will be joining in 2012.

Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire Series) Reading Challenge 2012

I saw this challenge over at A Novel Challenge. It is hosted by The Lit Bitch. I have read A Game of Thrones because I wanted to get to know the material before watching the HBO series. Now, I hope to finish the entire series as well. I also like that it runs the entire year and I can read it at my own pace.
