Prize
Whoever reads the most pages will get to choose the next BOTM (Book of the Month) for August 2013.

Questions
Comment your questions & I'll put them on here.
Q: there are 31 days in July, are you meaning to leave the last day off? I assume it's just an error - I always get confused with the month days myself.
A: The winner of the challenge (the one who read the most pgs) will be announced on the 31st :) I forgot to put that on here, sorry!
Q: So, do I just have to pick any book with 2000 pages and read it in the month? Or do you read more then one?
A: Oh no! That would be hard haha. You could read as many books as you want & then add up all the pages.
Q:Books that I started before July but finished in July are counted for all these challenges?
A:It has to be started on July not before.
