Challenge Complete: 52 Books in 52 Weeks

Read 52 Books in 52 Weeks Challenge

January 1, 2016 – December 31, 2016

Hosted by Robin at My Two Blessings

Every year Robin at My Two Blessings hose the 52 Books in 52 Weeks Reading Challenge. The rules are simple. Just read one book per week for a total of 52 books in the year. Considering that I normally read over 100 books each year, I call this one my "slam-dunk" challenge. I just finished my book for this week...and so another year of this challenge comes to a close. See you all for another 52 in 2017.
