Reading Hard or Hardly Reading???

Readers! We hope you are continuing to enjoy your reading journey and the books along the way!   As a reminder, the goal of the challenge is to encourage reading for pleasure and reading outside of your regular reading patterns.

Noticeably absent from this list are poetry, plays and graphic novels, which tend to be shorter than full length texts.
