Charming Summer Reading Challenges - Odira Keene - June 1, 2018

Charming Reads Challenges 2018

Longer days mean more daylight for reading outside. Why complete a Charming Reads Challenge in the process? You will have three months to complete one (or more) of three challenges this summer. How do they work?

For each challenge, you’ll be given five books to complete. Read three of them and post 2+ times in the appropriate discussion thread to complete that challenge and earn this beautiful stamp:

Participating in the challenge can also help earn you our book club stamps, which is always a bonus!

Track your progress in this thread using the form below:

Code:
<center>[b]CHALLENGE NAME[/b]</center>

[b]Book 1:[/b] [i]Started[/i]: /[i]Finished[/i]:

[b]Book 2:[/b] [i]Started[/i]: /[i]Finished[/i]:

[b]Book 4:[/b] [i]Started[/i]: /[i]Finished[/i]:

[b]Book 5:[/b] [i]Started[/i]: /[i]Finished[/i]:

Finally, everyone who completes a challenge will get one raffle entry per. You’ll also get an extra one for completing all five books in one challenge like the lean, mean, reading machine you are!
