Yesterday I announced my first ever reading (and a little bit more) challenge…The New York Challenge. So while you’re considering what book you want to read (come on, you know you wanna), I have the first of the promised mini-challenges for you.
For the month of February, your task (should you choose to accept it) is to compile a list of ten things about New York. It can be a reading list, a list of songs, restaurants, places to visit (or that you’d like to visit), places to avoid…whatever you want to share. After you’ve written your post, come back and leave the link in Mr Linky.
At the end of February, I’ll pick from the list of participants and the winner will get a little somethin’ somethin’ from The Strand. Have you seen their tote bags?
Heck, Why not sign up I’m thinking. I think I can read (1) book which takes place in NYC by May…LOL Sure, I’ll take you up on your challenge! Great idea.

Such a great idea! I posted my link of favorites, which are perhaps a bit off-the-beaten-path.

Absolutely, I am in for this challenge! Love it. First book that comes to mind is Jay McInerney’s short story collection, “How It Ended.” I’ve had it out from the library twice now, and have always returned it unread. Now, there will be no excuse.
I have my list of ten posted (books, natch!). I considered doing a vlog motage of 10 snippets of songs about New York, but I was afraid you’d all approach me with cotton in your ears come May!
