I just joined LT a week or so ago and I think this challenge sounds awesome! I think I can read 75 by December 31st!!!
I'm 15 and I love sci-fi, adventure, romance and spy novels. I'm not real big on the classics but you'll most likely see me reading one or two for school.
My favorite book of all time would have to be Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen although it's ridiculously hard for me to choose just one!
Wish me luck!

Love your username! I take it from your pic that you're a Secretariat fan? I'm big into horse racing myself!

I am a horse racing fan, although not as knowledgeable as I wish! We're lucky to have a small track near us, and I follow the Triple Crown preps but that's about it! Secretariat's my all time favorite!

3. Danger in the Shadows by Dee Henderson.
5 Star rating, definately

It's the prequel to the O'Malley Series (which I also HIGHLY reccommend) and it's about a woman who was kidnapped when she was a girl, falling in love with a pro-football player. The only problem is she's still being stalked by her kidnapper.
I totally reccommend it for teens and adults!
