More Summer Reading Challenge
Duration: July 1 - Aug 31, 2021



I wanted to make this challenge easy and personal. With that in mind, I simply want you to set a personal goal of how many books you want to read during July and August, then shoot for that goal.

Goals:

Easy - Monthly Reader : 1 book per month

Intermediate - Weekly Read: 1 book per week

Difficult - Reading Wiz: 2 or more books per week

What's your goal?

Goal: Intermediate (1 book per week)
*EDIT* Updated to Difficult (2 books per week) since I seem to be averaging 2 books/week
