Amy C | 78 comments I'm going to be traveling some this summer so I don't think I'll try to complete the whole challenge. Instead, I think I'll try to find a book for each task, but then select in advance just half of them to complete. I so much like finding books to complete the tasks that I don't want to miss that fun. I'll update this link with my list during the first few days of the challenge.
