I have a ton of books calling my name. Books that I just want to read because ‘I’ want to read them. However, review commitments seem to be taking up all my reading time lately so they sit patiently, waiting for me to pick them up. One example is The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. I bought that book when it came out (that was a long time ago) and it sits on the shelf, looking at me longingly, hoping that I will pick it up someday.
Is this you? If so, you may want to consider Swapna’s challenge. It’s time to clear off your shelves!
This challenge will work a little differently than other challenges. Instead of picking a set number of books to read during this time period, you will pick a percentage. This means that a certain percentage of the books you read during these two months will have to qualify for this challenge. For example, let’s say you pick 40% and you end up reading 10 books in October and November. 4 of those books would have to qualify for this challenge in order for you to complete it. I am setting a minimum percentage of 20%.
