Note: Fall Into Reading 2009 has begun. If you’d like to join the challenge, or just want to check out the participants, please visit the official launch post. Thanks!
Who: You, me, and readers all around the blogosphere
What: Fun, low-pressure reading challenge
When: September 22, 2009 - December 20, 2009
Where: Here. And on your blog. And on all the other participants’ blogs, too.
Why: Because reading rocks. And we can all enjoy a little community and accountability every now and then.

I can’t wait! It’s coming at a great time in my life right now.
Holy cow, it’s already that time again? I’m bummed because I always end up adding books I didn’t know about to my list!
I can never keep up. I’m excited for the challenge. Thanks again for taking all the time to do this!
I can’t wait. I think this is what I need to get my reading done.
yayyyyyyyyyyyyy!
I can’t wait!
How can that be???
Cute button.
Jennifer, Snapshot´s last post ..North! Or be eaten
Uh, yeah, what Jennifer said (including the cute button part).
I want to do this. I’ve added virtual bookshelf to my fb page, I’ve put some good holds in at the library, and I have books I haven’t finished. So what if I just switched grade levels and I’m so exhausted each night I sigh as I sink into the couch? I can still read!
Looking forward to more details…
Yay!! I was just wondering yesterday when it was starting because my book pile? It’s ready to topple it’s so big!
Yea! Can’t wait, and super cute button this time!
Yes!!!! I have already started plotting my list. Maybe I’ll get it organized before the last day of summer so I don’t leave any books off my list.
Okay, okay, you can stop laughing now.
Oh my - time goes by so quickly! I’m ready to read - have been wrapping up the challenges I started with the new year and now have a stack of “just for fun” books waiting!
Yes! Time IS flying by! Lots of fun in store though….
Waiting for more!
Yay! I love fall, and I love reading!
Mercy!! Already?!
okay I just squealed with delight!! Going to go add the button now!! And maybe start on my list
I’ve already started on my list. Looking forward to it.
I just followed you over here from A Novel Challenge… I love your blog!! And I love the challenge button. I’ll be looking forward to details about the challenge!
I love this challenge and plan to join again this year. Working on my list of books already.
I’ve never done this before but heard about it from Mad and it sounds like fun so I’m in!!
I am so excited. I had a lot of fun with the Spring Thing and have been looking forward to the fall challenge. I love the button. I am going to get started on my list…
Swiping the button and joining the reading fun!
Fall into Reading was my very first challenge. I’ll be here!
So excited! And I love the button!
I’ve never done a reading challenge before. But it looks like fun! Count me in. Love the button!

My official post is up here.
First of all… cute button! The button alone makes me want to participate!!
Yes, count me in too. I have several purchased, unread books that I want to read before year’s end.
This will be my first time doing this but I’ll sure give it a try. Sounds fun! If only I can keep up. I’m always way behind on my reading. LOL!
Yipee! Love the button.
Yay, I’m definitely on board for this one- it’ll be my first “official” challenge and seems like a great place to start!
So very excited!!
Jolanthe´s last post ..Hiding all Their Stuff {aka ‘Organizing’}
I’m in - can’t wait!
Yay! I needed this one again. I think some of the books on my list will probably be familiar as they were on the Spring list and the Summer list as well. ::sigh:: Maybe this time I’ll actually get through them!
Count me in… I better get to the book store
Cute button. I have never done a reading challenge before so this will be my first. I’m excited to be participating! Now I’m off to make my list.
I’ve always loved your reading challenges (visiting participating blogs and seeing what everyone is reading) but I’ve never actually joined in… until now
This month as I started to read more, I remembered your posts about this and came over to see if you were doing a Fall in to Reading 09, and yay, I was not disappointed. I’ve already started reading more and am making a list of books I hope to get through.
I’ll start working on my list! I had so much fun with the Spring Thing.
Oh…looking forward to join in..! Now I’ll have to choose the books from my book-pile & make a list…
This looks like fun! I never finished the Spring challenge, because of a death in the family, but this looks like a good way to motivate myself to get through that TBR pile.
Cute button. I’ll look forward to hearing more about the challenge in the future.
I can’t wait! Definitely need some help getting through my stack!
Oh yah, I’ve already got the button on my blog and am soooo ready to make a dent in my stack of books. This sounds like a challenge I will be able to do and that I NEED to do! Can’t wait to get my list started.

I’ve added Fall Into Reading to my challenges!
Yay! This is one of my favorite yearly challenges! I can’t wait!
This will be my first time participating but it sounds like fun. Grabbed a button for my page and signed up for e-mail updates!
I would love to join this one! I have a lot of my own books I need to read. How many are we supposed to read in that time frame?
A wonderful way to welcome fall! Must start compiling my list!
Off to add the button…
I’m In please……
It’s my first time here.
I’d really love to participate, i have a really long list! can’t wait for more details.
the button is really cute!
Put the button up on my sidebar, now coming up with a list of books!
Thanks for the wonderful button. I have started my list and can’t wait to get started.
I work at Barnes & Noble, so this is a perfect excuse to buy and read more books!
First time on your blog and I love it already!
I’m so going to this challenge! I have allot of books on my wishlist.
Great idea!!
Hi,
I have added the button to my sidebar.
Can I post my books now and just add the permalink on Tuesday?
Or do I need to wait til Tuesday to post anything?
Thanks,
Joyful
What fun!
