A challenge!

Last week I was cruising around blogland, as I like to do, and I came across a button on Mrs Spoonful's very sweet blog. It was a button I could just not resist clicking on!

( Here is the link because I am not clever enough to work out the button , sorry )

I may have mentioned it once or twice, but I LOVE this film. I love the characters, I love the sweetness, I love the New York setting.

Sigh.

So anyway, once I had clicked on this cute button, it took me to a site where there was a challenge running. Now this challenge actually began back on Jan 1st, but I emailed the sweet lady who is in charge and I am allowed to join in! Yay!

The challenge is basically to read as many of the books, featured/mentioned throughout the film, as you can throughout the year.

I am super excited to get started! I love to read, although I am not exactly into the classics. I am a Jodi Picoult, John Grisham, Cecelia Ahern kind of gal.

I am determined to read Pride and Prejudice during this challenge but I don't think I will start with something quite so, um  challenging.

And  until I ask the ever so nice Librarian if I can return to the library to borrow books, after I was struck off for having books out for too long, (oops) and promise to return them on time, I will need to use what I have. And what do I have on hand?? Well it just so happens I have a son who adores Roald Dahl books and has the whole collection.
Back in my childhood I read every children's book written by this fine man , but it will be fun to take a trip down memory lane and enjoy the magic that he can create with his amazing words. I will start with Boy, as I think that is the one that Kathleen is reading as the Story Lady in the film.

Here is a little bit of one of my favourite feel good films, it even has a little bit of Christmas in it!

It's like it was made for me!
