Are you ready for week three of our Read More Books challenge?
Read HERE to learn about it. It’s not too late to join in.
Check WEEK ONE and WEEK TWO of the list.
How did you do with your reading? Even if you didn’t finish the book you selected, it counts if you select one for this week to add to your TBR pile.
NOTE: Next Thursday, Part 10 of Sue Harrison’s writers workshop will be the highlight. Come back October 31 for part four of the reading challenge. This gives you more time to read until the next list of books. 🙂
