Charming Reads Challenges 2020

Longer days mean more daylight for reading outside. Why complete a Charming Reads Challenge in the process? You will have three months to complete this year's summer challenge. How does it work?

Below, you'll find ten books on this year's theme of "Original vs. Adaptation" Read (or listen to!) three of them and post 2+ times in the appropriate discussion thread to complete the challenge! Once you've done so, you'll earn this beautiful stamp:
Participating in the challenge can also help earn you our book club stamps, which is always a bonus!

You may count books you read in April/May of this year if needed!
