2015 Reading Challenge (Progress: 31/50)  
For Christmas, I got a Kindle (aka a e-reader) and it seems like, since it's easier to find room for it in my bag every morning than for an actual book, I read more books in 3 weeks than in the past three months. So I decided to to a reading challenge for 2015. I am not sure whether I'll be able to read all those different types of books, but I'll try. I want to read new things, things I've never tried before and I guess it's a good opportunity.

I'll be doing this Challenge that was shared on MadmoiZelle (a feminist French webzine that is really amazing) and I'll be updating this list every time I read a book that fit in one of the categories. Even though some of the books can fit in many categories, I choose to have a different book per category, the challenge is greater that way.



  • A book with more than 500 pages: Les 7 roses de Tokyo by Inoue Hisashi

  • A classic romance: La Dame aux camélias by Alexandre Dumas

  • A book that became a movie: I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

  • A book published this year:

  • A book with a number in the title: The Power of Six by Pittacus Lore

  • A book written by someone under 30: Sales Jeunes by Galaad Moine (it's the book my friend wants to publish and it was really good *_* I seriously hope he'll find a publisher and I can't wait for him to write Volume 2)

  • A book of short-stories:

  • A book set in a different country: The Rise of Nine by Pittacus Lore (I mainly read books written by English-speaking writers, this one is easy because books written in English are not often set in France)

  • A book you can finish in a day: Les Malheurs de Sophie by La Comtesse de Ségur

  • A book with antonyms in the title:

  • A book set somewhere you've always wanted to visit: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by JK Rowling

  • A book that came out the year you were born:

  • A book with bad reviews:

  • A trilogy: Chaos Walking by Patrick Ness

  • A book from your childhood: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by JK Rowling

  • A book with a color in the title:

  • A book that made you cry: Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery

  • A book you own but have never read:

  • A book written by an author with your same initials:

  • A play:

  • A banned book: The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

  • A book based on or turned into a TV show: The 100 by Kass Morgan

  • A book you started but never finished: Le Comte de Monte-Cristo by Alexandre Dumas



I'll do my best from now on then! What shall I treat myself with at the end of the year if I manage to finish it? Any idea?

Ahh le monde est petit!
Oh oui, le roulé au maccha c'est une tuerie tout comme leurs melon pan! Ca fait partie de mon tour obligatoire quand je fais un petit tour à Paris.
Je pense que cette idée de challenge est sûrement le bon argument dont j'avais besoin pour faire pencher la balance, j'irais faire un petit tour à la fnac...
Oui, c'est ce que je pensais pour Caen et ça cochera aussi la case non-fiction book!
Pour la couleur 50 shade of Grey devrait marcher...c'est l'occasion ou jamais\O/

Leur religieuse me fait souvent de l'oeil, je pense que je n'arriverai pas à me décider XD Je verrai, d'ici là. Je vais souvent à Aki donc je pense que j'irai plus chez un pâtissier renommé *_*

Ce challenge, c'est une façon de se motiver à lire des choses nouvelles \o/
