My goals for this challenge are:
•Read at least 30 books
•Review at least 30 books
•Attend at least one Twitter party
•Take part in at least 3 Read-A-Thons
•Listen to 3 or more audio books. (I've never really listened to an audio book, but recently download Agatha Christie's The Murder at the Vicarage)
•Read 5+ paperbacks. (Lately I have been reading all E-Books. I miss the feel of having a paperback in my hand.)
I have no set reading schedule. I will be reading ARCS from Netgalley, author provided books for review, books for blog tours, books that I have purchased for my Kindle along with freebies and catching up on my personal TBR list.
I will be updating my progress on my blog at the end of each week along with keeping a Goodreads shelf for Coyer.
My son and I are both taking part in summer reading programs at our library also. He is doing the Tot program (He is 17 months) so we will be working on his together. This is my first year doing a summer reading program since I was in middle school so I am looking forward to it! We can listen to audio books, read paperbacks & hardcovers or e-books. Coyer will definitely help me with my reading program and my summer reading goals.
