Does it feel like summer yet in your neck of the woods? As promised, the Summer Reading Challenge is officially beginning today! Share your summer reading lists on your blog and link up below.

Here are my reading goals for the summer:

Read 9 books, preferably books I already own. Although I reserve the right to change my mind, here are the books I’m currently planning to read:

The Extraordinary Education of Nicholas Benedict by Trenton Lee Stewart The Selection by Kiera Cass – Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster – Stories I Only Tell My Friends by Rob Lowe

Yes, I’m aware that the math doesn’t add up, but I thought I’d give myself a little wiggle room.

Now it’s your turn!

    Wow, I am really late at getting around. Too late I’m afraid to start this challenge! 😦 All these books look pretty interesting. But, I read The Great Gatsby and was greatly disappointed. All the hype and it was just so, I don’t know, empty. I hope you have a better expereince with it than I did. Happy Reading!

    You have a great list there, Jen! The only one there that I’ve read is The Age of Miracles, which I really enjoyed.

    Hope you have a great summer of reading, and thanks for hosting!
