Here is an interesting Challenge I've never seen before:

Do you love art? Do you love reading about art? Join The Art History Reading Challenge and challenge yourself to read at least 6 books about art in 2009. These can be either fiction or nonfiction, and can span every genre from historical fiction to graphic novel.
If you're interested in checking out the suggestions or just signing right up, click here. Fiction books I can think of off the top of my head that would work for this challenge and aren't currently on the suggestion list would be:
The God of Spring
The Needle in the Blood
I, Mona Lisa
Leonardo's Swans
I'm not sure if I'll sign up for this one, but I thought I'd let all of you know about it, in case you hadn't run across it yet. It sure looks educational!

Thanks for posting about the challenge! I've heard a lot of good things about A Needle in the Blood, and it is definitely on my to-read list (which is over 150 books long, but I'll never run out!)
PS - I am also an editor. Grammar rules!
Sarah ~ No problem! It looked so cool that I wanted to make sure other people knew about it even if I chose to restrain myself. Though I feel the restrait slipping. . . :-)

PS My job makes me paranoid about my grammar on my blog. LOL!
I hadn't seen this challenge before, but I have to say it is tempting! I am not sure what art history books I have still sitting around here to read though.
I will have to contemplate before joining in!
Marg ~ It was new to me, too. I love the idea! I think I'm going to do it, but I want to explore some of the books that would fit it first.
