2. Read a book that you have had for two+ years and haven't started.
3. Read a book you have started, set aside for awhile, and now want to finish.

Kristin created this challenge, and I will be the leader of this challenge.

I have struggled with how to present the participants for this challenge, and because of the way it has been set up, I decided a Google sheet would be best. Please click on the link below to see your numbers and let me know if you need any changes. Thank you!

I'll join in, too! :) I'm going to set a goal of 9 books. That number would be higher (because I own far too many books that collect dust of my shelves), but this quarter I have my exam period and high school graduation, so I think 9 books is reasonable. Since I don't own any ebooks or audio books, then all of mine will be physical books :)
