2013 Summer Reading Challenge

It is time for the second annual Shhh! Mommy is doing her Summer Reading Challenge.

 
The Challenge runs from June 1 to Sept 1.
 
If you choose to participate come up with five categories of your own to read and then use my five or another friend's five or make up five-ten categories. I don't care. Just take a little time to sit and read, maybe in the backyard. With a chilled drink. I'm thinking limeade myself.

  1. Read the book you have been putting off forever
  2. Read a book that was meant for children
  3. Read a Genre that you don't normally read
  4. Read a book with or at the same time as your child or other relative
  5. Read a book from a series either a new series or one you already enjoy
  6. Read a book about something associated with summer
  7. Read a non-fiction book

1. Putting Off - Eve and the Choice Made in Eden
 
2. Children - The One and Only Ivan
