Summer Reading Challenge 2010!

The Summer Reading Challenge is being hosted by Julie @ My Book Retreat!

Here's how you can participate in this Summer Reading Challenge, which will take place from June 21 - September 21.

1. Create a list of the books you’d like to read or finish during this summer season. There's no minimum and no requirements as to the type of books you put on your list ~ it's all up to you how many you include, and whether they're beach reads or classics or something in between.
2. Write a blog post with the list of books you want to read ~ and any other summer reading goals ~ and post it on your blog.
3. Sign up HERE!
4. Read! Work through your list of books throughout the summer. Write reviews if you'd like. Have fun!
5. Write a wrap-up post at the end of summer to report on your results.
6. Come back here on September 21st to link your wrap-up post to the Linky I'll post that day.
