Read a book for every week of the year, so 52 books. I will do as many as possible and hope to finish it.
Remember the big Reading Challenge of 2015 from Pop Sugar? Well, that one has been archived and a few of us AMMPers who have a blog together decided to create our own for our blog and to share with our favorite group.
The goal of course is to read as many of these as you can in 2016 but not everyone can manage 52 books or they may not be interested in some of the categories, so just have fun and happy reading in 2016! You can take the purple badge for participating, regardless of how many tasks you finish.
