So, I said a while ago that I thought I had already revealed rc-4 a.k.a. Reading Challenge #4. As it turns out, I had written the post, but never posted it. However, based on what I've read so far in 2012, I don't think my original plan for rc-4 is really going to work... Therefore I've got a better - but less exciting - idea.
So what?! Who cares?!

Reading Challenge #4 is to read 20 books in the year 2012.
Yes, I know this was the challenge for rc-3 and 2011, but I didn't complete it and I want another go at it.

Why does my original plan no longer work? Well, the original plan was to read up to 50% of my book collection, as I've realized that I've only read about 26% of my collection (sad, but true). This is a great plan, BUT it means I'd need to read about 26 books this year (ambitious) AND so far the two books I've read are a new book I bought and another that I borrowed. So... that's not gonna work. I'm just going to go with 20 books this year, and - as always - I'll keep you posted along the way.
