    @maggi32 , sorry about the confusion my friend. The idea of the thread is to dedicate some time from our busy lives to reading whatever we all love to read. The challenge part is just to keep the reading habit active. You can read any number of books in a given month as long as you stick to it and read to your heart's content. The good start can be one book a month ( your liking- fiction/ non fiction/ other genre). Everyone's preference is different. I can not keep a fiction book down until I am done reading it, so I generally stick with non-fiction these days.

    I am almost 75% complete with the books I started off reading this month
    1. The ten-year turnaround by Matthew Paulson ( Rereading some of the chapters.Lots of personal finance advice)
    2. The Introvert Advantage: How to Thrive in an Extrovert World by Marti Olsen Laney ( loving this book. My and DH are grabbing this at the same time almost every night after dinner and work. We often spend time discussing this book so I guess this will take time to complete.)

    Hi @maggi32!

    This thread was started by @blessings1010 and her challenge is to read x number of books every month. Any books of your choice.

    We have another thread here: Let's Read A Thriller - Il Book Club where we all read a particular book. The last book we read was The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson.

    Sorry for the confusion.
