Strictly Print Reading Challenge

The Strictly Print Reading Challenge at Book Dragon's Lair is ideal for me since hard-copy books are what I'm all about.

There are several levels:
  • Board Books: 12  (New level)
  • Picture Books: 26  (New level)
  • Chapter Books: 52
  • Middle Grade: 78
  • Teen: 104 
  • Young Adult: 156
  • Adult: 208 or more  

I am in fort the Young Adult level of 156. I used to be able to read over 200 books a year, but I haven't hit that mark for quite some time. If I read like a house on fire in 2018, then I'll level up.

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
