Kitten's 2009 Support Your Local Library Challenge

This will be the last reading challenge I sign up for this year. (Famous last words, I know). Here's the link to J. Kaye's for all of the rules.

For this one, you can choose to read any 12, 25, or 50 books from your local library. I'm going with 25. There are still a lot of books on my bookshelf that I'd like to read, and with this economy, I need to be frugal about my book purchases!

Not to mention, my town has one kick-ass, amazing, award-winning library.

And, like the other three challenges, you can keep up with me via the button on the sidebar.
