Hosted by Pizza's Book Discussion
The goal of this challenge is to see who can read the most books. Okay, so I know it won't be me, but I can sort of challenge myself to see how many I can read. Maybe I can break my own record. Wouldn't that be cool?
I'll be posting the books I read in August here. To sign up, click here.

I would totally join this. But I got into a Challenge frenzy a few weeks ago and I am doing more challenges than I can keep up with. lol.. But thanks for the heads up about the new challenge!!!
Good luck!
I'm tempted...oh so tempted! There's no way I would win as available time to read is at an all-time low, but this just might give me some much needed motivation. I really need to learn to read faster, but sometimes I just want to savor....
