Reading Challenge Finished!

Today I finished my first big reading challenge!  I feel like I have hit a milestone…  it’s a great feeling of accomplishment.  You ask, what reading challenge?  Zombies, of course.  I didn’t think it would take me long to read 10 zombie books, but I thought it would take longer than this.  I tried to pick up a mix of genres for my weekly reading.  Yet, I somehow always ended up with a zombie book in there.  So here’s my list…  the first ten were my original picks way back in December.  As you can see, I picked up some others to ultimately finish the list.

1. The Undead World of Oz — Ryan Thomas
2. Zombies for Zombies — David Murphy (2/5/11)
3. Flip this Zombie — Jesse Petersen (2/13/11)
4. Zombies vs. Unicorns - Larbalestier
5. The Forest of Hands and Teeth - Carrie Ryan (5/17/11)
6. The Dead-Tossed Waves - Carrie Ryan (5/23/11)
7. You are So Undead to Me - Stacey Jay
8. Undead Much - Stacey Jay
9. Zombie Blondes - Brian James
10. Generation Dead - Daniel Waters
11. A Zombie’s History of the United States - Dr. Worm Miller (3/2/11)
12. Autumn - David Moody (3/6/11)
13. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dreadfully Ever After - Steven Hockensmith (4/10/11)
14. Autumn: The City - David Moody
15. Hungry for Your Love - Lori Perkins (4/21/11)
16. The Living Dead 2 - John Joseph Adams (5/9/11)
17. Once Bitten, Twice Dead - Bianca D’Arc (5/16/11)

I read some really good ones in there.  I think my favorite so far is Autumn by David Moody.  Very disturbing book, but not your typical zombie gore fest.  I still have the sequel Autumn: The City to read.  But I want to take a zombie break.

There’s still a question hanging in the air: Should I increase this reading challenge to 20 books and keep going?  Or just keep it here and focus on the other challenges?  Keep in mind that I will still read zombie books throughout the rest of the year, I just won’t have them count for a challenge!
