Book Blogger Summer Reading Program

This challenge is hosted by Katie's Book Blog 

Details HERE // Start Date: 5/1/2014 // End Date: 9/1/2014

I remember participating in my local library's kids summer reading programs every year from when I was little up until I was too old. Therefore, when I found this very awesome challenge I couldn't resist. I had to sign up. Not to mention just like those years when I was young, there are prizes to win! :) Its not the only reason I'm participating, but it's a nice benefit.

My Goal is to read 35 books, which would keep me pretty close to staying on track with my 2014 goodreads challenge. I feel like I could read a little more since it's over the span of four months, but I don't want to push it since it is the summer and I have a family vacation among other things going on.

  3. I like that you have a list up already! You should also try reading some road trip books. I don't know what it is about them but they feel summery to me - Amy and Roger's Epic Detour is an amazing one (: ~ Good luck on your goal.
