I’m so honored to be your first book of 2012! Not sure I’m up for the challenge, but you’ve inspired me to at least make a list of what I’ve read.
Also, if you are looking for movie suggestions, I so enjoy this blog from film director Stephen Simon:

Good luck with your goals in 2012 and Happy New Year!
This one looks great! Will add this to my challenge list.
I have not heard of this challenge, but am willing to give it a shot! Already have two books read in 2012 so I guess that’s a good start!
What did you think of Room?
