  2. Bitter Spirits is the oldest ARC I've read for the challenge so far. But I have tons that are older but I'm not sure I'll get to them this month.

  3. The oldest arc I've had but not yet read yet... would be Maguire's A Lion Among Men. I received it back when I worked for Borders in 2008. (Holy cow, that was 6 years ago?!?!?) I loved Wicked, before it was ever the broadway show, so when it showed up on my boss' desk, I claimed it.

    Yet, I needed to re-read the series in order to fully appreciate ALAM. I just never got around to it. :(

    1. I have a few like that, I am not reading them for the challenge either, I am just trying to get caught up with the more recent ARCs I have.

  7. OMG My oldest ARC?? I seriously can't remember! But I think the oldest sitting on my desk is Lara Adrian's Edge of Dawn, book 11 of her Midnight Breed series. I don't have this on my pile to read for the challenge because I want to read others first. I'm not a huge fan of Paranormal and vampires so it's not going to get read anytime soon, for now. But the oldest on my list for the challenge is Waking Up With a Rake by Connie Mason --or maybe Lucky Like Us by Jennifer Ryan? I just never had the time to get to these as other readings came in, and because I was in my last year of college when I started receiving all these ARCs that I had to postpone.

    1. That is understandable, sometimes life does take back over and reading surely suffers.
