It is February, but challenges aren’t just for new years, months, weeks or days… So I’m doing this reading challenge, along with a couple of friends (who will turn it into a competition, because it’s always a competition – any suggestions for prizes are welcome!). I’m going to read a different book for each one, which means I need to get a wriggle on as I’ve only finished two books so far this year… I’ll update each time I’ve ticked one off.
