Support Your Local Library Reading Challenge

I just so happened upon a reading challenge that utilizes the local library. WELL... here is a picture of the library that is just two blocks from my house. I have to say, it is a very nice library for our small town. I should know, I work there!!




There are several levels to the challenge:

• Mini - check out and read 25 books
• Just my size - check out and read 50 books
• Stepping it up - check out and read 75 books
• Super size me - check out and read 100 books

I am all for supporting my local library, so I think that I will step up to the challenge with the "Stepping it up" level.
I will record the books that I read at this post. Our library has a wonderful loan network, so I am able to get just about any book my heart desires!!
**I just want to say that after reading some of these books, they are not all ones that I would recommend. After working at the library, there were several authors and genres that I wanted to check out. Some were great reads...others not so much.
