Riya In this challenge, you will be reading books from a list put together by the people who signed up!

Here's How It Works:

1. When you sign up, pick out five books you want to be included on the list, or book pool.
2. Any book works as long as it follows these simple guidelines:
-YA
-No Duplicates
3. At the beginning of July, you will start reading books from the entire Book Pool. Pick at least one, but there is no limit on the number of books you read.
4. We will have a bit of a competition; the person who reads the most books in the Book Pool will be the champion for that month!

Okay! That's it , have fun! And let me know if you have any questions!

I'm probably done. I only have two books left, but I have them on hold at the library and I get the feeling that I won't get them this month.
But I did good!
