Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

You've made it to the 4th level.

This challenge is for serious readers. This is the 4th level of this challenge. The challenge consists of many levels, each level consisting of 100 books. So if you have not completed your three hundred, go back and complete Level 1, 2 and/or 3 of the Serious Readers Challenge for 2013.

Just create your list of books (at this level label them 301 through 400) and mark them off with a strike through them as you finish. If you find you can't finish one of the books on your list for any reason, you may replace it with another. Also, if you just want to decide what you read as you go you can do that as well.

Since this challenge is for the year 2013 any books you've read this year (if you get a late start) may be included. If you get done with one level, but I haven't created the next just let me know and I'll add the next level to our challenge as soon as I can. This is a free choice challenge. Read whatever you want. Hopefully, all is clear.

Happy reading!

Reserved. 'Cause you never know.

Level 4?!?!?!?

We've had people get to Level 5, Catherine.
