JG & Booksnyc: Thanks for the review links. I'll add them when I do the wrap up post. And if you send the other reviews, I'll add those later.

I just finished my last book for this challenge yesterday. My review is going to be a bit late as well.

Hi - I forgot to check in with my review of the Corrections http://booksnyc.blogspot.com/2011/01/review-corrections-by-jonathan-franzen.html

Hi!
Birdie here again.
I have just completed my first book for the challenge. I read Kazuo Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day. It was gorgeous and tragic. I'm still sniffling. Here is my review.

Sandra -- Thanks for your Booker link. I'll add it to my Booker list post.

And I am so pleased that you are going to participate in this challenge! I look forward to seeing your list.

I'd seen this challenge but didn't realize you were hosting it. I follow all the literary prizes and have read some Tait winners so I'll join and get a post up when I can. You've made some good choices there.
You had asked me to let you know when I updated my Complete Booker Challenge. The link you left doesn't go anywhere so I wonder if you gave up on that challenge or I just can't find it? I've update mine for the 2010 challenge-I've read quite a few in the past year.
I'll leave my link so you can take a look-they all have starred ratings so you can tell how I liked them:

I'm going to take the plunge and actually do this... I'm going to start with
The Magnificent Ambersons by Booth Tarkington, Angle of Repose by Wallace Stegner and Augustus by John Williams.

I think I'll do the Brit and the American versions.
