I'm participating in this year long 40 book challenge. A lot of librarians in my area are doing it also. We are sharing our books and getting great ideas from each other. I am not looking forward to reading some of these books. I'm not a science fiction person at all. I'm just going to do my best and have fun with it. 

Have you ever done a book challenge?

  1. I've never seen a challenge like this before! I bet it would be fun to do with a classroom of kids, your book club or fun for you to do on your own. Some of those requirements are definitely out of my normal reading zone so it would be fun to check out some completely new books.
