Family Tree Reading Challenge

# of books: minimum 3,
Love reading? Love family? Love researching family history? Want a family-friendly reading challenge?
Goal: To read a book from the birth year of your selected family members (at least three books). You do not have to mention them by name, unless you want. But do please list the years you'll be reading. You may include yourself in your 'family tree.' For more details, see the sign-up page (link above).
**************
My stated goal was to read at least five books--one for me, my husband and son as well as my mom and dad. I was able to complete that goal with a book for my dad on 8/5/18. This was a fun challenge and I appreciate Becky putting it together. I'm now going to try and finish off books for my dad's side of the family (sister and brother and their kids.

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!
