I just learned about #14books14weeks and since my current goal is already to get through this stack of books on my floor, I'll just use it, though it has way more than 14 books. But this gives me choices! I'll post again when I have my actual 14 picked out. ☺️ @LizM

Liz_M I love that your books were pre-stacked 😂 1w

I registered for the #summerreadingchallenge through @bookshop_org and @getawayhouse .

One of the best things about summer reading is earning badges! I honestly don‘t know why but earning these badges make me smile and warm my heart. ❤️

DGRachel I feel the same way when I earn badges for the library‘s summer reading challenge! 11mo

I almost forgot to post my list for #ReadYourEbooks! Last month, I read one and started on the second, which I‘ll finish, but not before the numbers are pulled. Plus I read another ebook from my library that wasn‘t on my list. And the answer to the question of whether June was the month I read Wolf Hall was nope! 😂 Ah well, it‘ll happen soon enough.

vivastory Lots of excellent choices! 11mo
CBee Welllll, according to the spinner thingy, you‘ll have another chance to get to Wolf Hall this month 😂😂🫢🫢 11mo
Hooked_on_books @CBee That‘s great news, actually! Maybe I‘ll actually read it this month. 😇 11mo

The goal was 14 books from the tbr in 14 weeks, Memorial Day to Labor Day.
I read 10! I forgot to include 1 in this collage, but it‘s fitting because I forgot to put 1 in the initial stack post. 😅
Thank you for the challenge @TheHeartlandBookFairy !
1 Becoming
2 Fall Into Darkness
3 What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?
4 Horse
5 Marvel‘s Voices: Pride
6 The Summer Wives
7 Wool
8 Empire of Wild
9 Death Comes for the Archbishop
10 Quicksilver

I‘m joining @TheHeartlandBookFairy for #14books14weeks2023.
I forgot to include the book I‘ve already read for this challenge, Becoming by Michelle Obama, in this picture. As a result there are 1 too many books here.

These are mostly books I can use for summer reading challenges, yearlong reading challenges, and BINGO games. A few are for fun or to coincide with travel.

Happy Reading this summer to everyone!

TheHeartlandBookFairy Nice stack, Becoming was one of my all time favorite books! Thanks for joining us; happy summer, happy reading 😎📚 2y
PaperbackPirate Becoming was so good!! Happy Reading to you too @TheHeartlandBookFairy ! 2y

@DeweysReadathon haven‘t posted it here yet, but they are trying out a reverse start time #readathon at the end of the month. For UK littens that‘s a 1am starting time if you‘re a total insomniac, or just read from the moment you wake up on Saturday 28th! 😅 No prizes for this one, but there might be some mini-challenges. Mainly just read, read all day long. 😎
