Here is some details about the challenge as per Missie's blog The Unread Reader:
- Should you choose to participate in this challenge, your goal is to read at least twelve (12) legally obtained e-books which you got for FREE for your e-reading device. While twelve is the minimum there is no maximum limit.
- Anyone can join. You don't have to be a blogger, and you don't have to live in the United States.
- Any E-Reader will work for this challenge, including: iPad, Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Sony Reader, enTourage.
- Please Note: If you don't have an e-reading device, you can still join in with Amazon's Free Kindle Reading Apps which you can download for your iPhone, iPad, Mac, PC, Blackberry and more.
- The challenge runs from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011. You can join at anytime.
- e-books in ANY genre count for this challenge as long as it was FREE at the time that you downloaded it.
- Every month in 2011, I will make a post for the Show Me The Free Reading Challenge so you can link your reviews.
- Those that link their reviews will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a different prize each month, such as an Amazon or Barnes & Noble Gift Card, a bookmark, or a GelaSkins for your E-Reader. Winners will be announced at the end of each month.
Hopefully I will be able to reach the goal of 12 with only 6 months remaining.

YAY KINDLE!!! Don't you just love it? I got addicted to it after I got it and went a little crazy with the downloading, it was amazing:) Good luck with the challenge Nic!
Yay!
*does happy dance*
I take my Kindle everywhere I go. I even find a few minutes to read when I'm in line at the post! :)
Thanks for joining. Looking forward to your challenge reviews.
Good luck with this new challenge!!
You know, In the Hammock always gives heads up about free books of the week, usually for kindle or nook. You should check out her blog (http://inthehammockblog.blogspot.com/ )
:D
Shouldn't be too hard since there's a ton more free ebooks on Kindle than for other ereaders. Good luck!
Curious. Do e-libraries count for this? I mean they're free so they should, right? I've already read at least 20 e-library books so far this year.
Never mind. Just read through the comments on the original blog and found out that they don't count. Looking forward to your reviews though!
Oh I want to do this! Good luck and have fun!!
Shame, I have a Nook...plus side? B&N spoils me rotten with free books haha ;)
Good luck with the challenge!
