The 2016 Reading Challenge

I haven't read so much lately as I used too and i think I would benefit both from a bit more reading and from broadening my horizons.

So me, my best mate and my son (and probably thousands of other people) and trying this challenge.

This is where I am so far. My best friend has the opposite problem. She spent last evening chosing books and now has loads and needs to prune

A book published this year

A book you can finish in a day-

A book you have been meaning to read - Superfreakonomics

A book recommended - A year of reading dangerously

A book you read in school- The Devils Disciple - George Bernard Shaw

A book chosen for you by spouse, child etc

A book published before you were born

A book banned at some point

A book previously abandoned

A book you own but never read

A book that intimidates you

A book you have already read at least once

I am not sure how to find a book that intimidates me. Can a book intimidate? I shall ponder on what that means.
Anyone want to join in? Its only 12 books for the whole year so should be pretty easy..
