Just putting out some feelers....

Is there any interest for a 2020 HF challenge?  I don't mind making one if there is enough interest, unless someone else would like to take the reigns?

Yes, of course!  These challenges keep me going to read my favorite genres.  Please do it.

Carolyn, I have been so unmotivated to read lately and therefore so absent in this forum that I think it's time to do something about it! I would welcome a challenge to get me more motivated. Can't say how well I'll do but I can TRY!!!

Thank you for continuing to do this for so long!yes

Jeanne - I'm in the same boat as you!  I haven't been able to get into ANY HF book that I've picked up this year.  I seem to be able to get through the quick cozy mysteries on my shelf, however! laugh

I will work on putting something together for the new challenge!

Although I'm sporadic with hanging out around here, I do the challenge every single year, so yes, I would love it if you would put something together Carolyn, and I thank you for doing so!

Alice mentioned this in a game and I suddenly remembered that I hadn't entered my books in about 5 months!  And I found that I had  a bunch of books to add.  Life gets in the way sometimes.

Yes!  I'm joining your challenge again!
