Rawk: Summer At The Beach

Rawk-A-Tiers Summer At The Beach hosted by Rawk-A-Tiers on Goodreads.

I am going for the most pages over these 2 months. I will try and read in total 10000 pages. The difficulty with this challenge is that the books have to be decided before start.

My list after the rules.

Sand in your toes, sun on your face, the soft sound of waves rolling in and seagulls calling to each other in a clear blue sky. Let's face it. Reading on the beach isn't quite the same grueling task as climbing up a mountain. And after all the stress of the past few weeks, a nice quiet beach read is probably something we all need. So let's trade our mountain backpacks for a pair of sunglasses and a bottle of sunblock and head down to the beach for the rest of the summer.

☯ Your challenge goal is to visit as many of these beaches as you can this summer by reading as many pages as you can. ☯ First you will need to post your summer reading list. You can either copy your mountaineering task list or you can create an all new list - it's totally up to you. No stress. Pick books you want to read for the rest of this summer. You have until 11:59p June 30 to get your reading list finalized.

~ Because this is a pages task and not a book task, the 150 page minimum does not apply to this challenge. Your list can include any age appropriate books that you want to include on it~

☯ July 1st, your list is final. After this date, you can no longer add to or subtract from it. You may read other books for Rawk-A-Tiers challenges, but only books on your posted reading list will count for this challenge.

☯ Maintain a single post with your book list, checked off finished books, and a running page total.

It is not a requirement, but you are free to post the image for that beach into your post. You may either use mine or you may find one of your own, as long as it's the same beach destination.
~ If you post your own image, please set the dimensions to : width ="250" height ="175"
~ This will keep the images small and prevent them from overwhelming our topic thread
~ If you need more help with how to do this, let me know.

☯ Relax. This is not a race. These are your book selections and you can read them in any order you want to. So put on some soft ocean white noise, crawl into your favorite chair or hammock, and let your books take you on a vacation from reality for just a little while.

Enjoy your reading!
