I found yet another interesting Challenge this year - The Official 2018 TBR Pile Challenge. 12 books published before 1/1/2017 to be read in 2018. That is quite easy as it is only 1 book a month! I can definitely do that part. Here are the 12 books and the extra two to switch with, in case  I can't make to the last page of any of the original 12. Emma Three men in a boat Arushi The second Lady The mistress of Spices The girl on the train Lanka's Princess  Boss, job and the Lady  Kane and Abel  The Prodigal Daughter  Mistress of the Throne Mother of the Bride. The guardian Angels  The Kitchen God's Wife I will post the reviews and also link it up over here. Can't wait to start!!!

Foodies Read Reading Challenge 2018- This is one of those challenge that I want to sign up for each year but I end up not doing it or doing it just half way. With the number of cookbooks that I have around, I am keep my fingers crossed to finish off a few. And also this will be a great opportunity to cook a couple of recipes from the book I read so that I am also able to do the Cooking from cookbook challenge for my food blog - Seduce Your Tastebuds . Since there are no levels in this challenge, I am hoping I can read a decent number of books for this event.

This year, I am planning to explore other genres and am looking into a lot of non fiction . So since I am doing this, I thought I will take part in the challenge called - Creativity Reading Challenge 2018 This challenge is about reading books on creativity, art, crafts, writing, film making, photography, cosmetology, DIY, cooking, music and any other topic that helps you live a more creative life.  Books may be nonfiction, memoir, how to, self help, coffee table books, instructional, picture books, and even fictional if they are about people who are creative. Here too there are no levels or maximum number of books to be read etc. Hence it will be a easier to finish this challenge.  Here are some of the books from my bookshelf that fit the bill.. The Queen of comeback Adding salt to make it sweeter Forgotten English Half pants full pants Happiness is all we want Know your worth The Arunachal Motorcycle chronicles Temptation- The uncontrollable syndrome Whisper

The best part of this challenge is there is no goal but just a minimum of 5 books to be read. I have the following books in my TBR list... The full series of Clifton Chronicles - 7 books The fourth Estate The prodigal Daughter Kane and Abel To cut a long story short 36 short stories And thereby hangs a tale Shall we tell the President Paths of glory Short stories - 10 e-books I will try to post reviews of the books.
