Reading Challenge to all teens!

(This is kind of a contest, except the prize for winning would just be pride in your accomplishments, and maybe a paperclip or bookmark that’s lying around.)

Every year, i challenge myself to read ALL 22 the books on the Lincoln State Book Award nominee list (available at the library and online) AND all the books on the Teens’ Top Ten Award nominee list (also available at the library and online). the TTT is voted on by teens only–adults’ votes don’t count; i found out.

This year, i’m challenging myself AND every teen who has any interest in reading! Read them ALL! (and then brag about it to me)
