Charming Reads Challenges 2019

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 or more books to complete. Read three of them and post 2+ times in the appropriate discussion thread to complete that challenge. Alternatively, you may read one book from each challenge if that's more your speed!. Do either of these, and you'll 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:
