So only a mini challenge for September with school theme, for those of us going back to school and for Adele who just graduated. Yeah!

So 4 to 6 books to finish.

1. Read a book that has studying or learning, or a school based in it. (This hooks right in with BOM theme)
2. September starts Fall (or Spring) So read a book with autumn colors on the cover, (or for those in the South, flowery Spring colors)
3. Labor Day (Labour for Canada. Do the Aussie have this?) ends our summer. I book with someone who holds a real job. (So many UF books are fantasy jobs)
4. One of September's flowers is the Forget-me-not, representing love and memories. Read a book where memory plays a role either bad memory or good, or a book where there is an intense love.

Bonus
5. read a book that the title or author's name starts with S
6. Read a book that has the number 7 or 9 in the title or is 7th or 9th in the series. (September was the 7th month but is now the ninth after July and August were so nicely added in. Hence the beginning Sept- means 7th)

The 7th or 9th book is going to be the hard one for me. Might have to read 8 and 9 of Chicagoland Vampires.

So I got the last one done by reading two Chicagoland Vampires like planned. Just in time.

Vannessa | 24 comments Yay! Excellent Amyiw! I have read more books this month than I have read in ages. Usually only manage 3 or 4 a month, but this challenge really kicked my reading off again, so thank you!

Oh great! So glad it helped. I seem to always read more at the closing of the summer. I think it is because my life is back in order and the kids are in school again. This month I've picked back up my reading, but I am a reading nut. I have read about twice as many this month as last month or the month before. My summers are always packed.

I'm still trying to fill in two of the Freedom challenge of Adele. I'm missing an O and an E. I could use a middle letter but I like sticking to first letters of a word. I might have to either read a novella or just break down and use a middle letter to finish.

I'll post up a 3 month challenge in a day or two, that might be up your speed as they usually are 8-12 books, so 3 or 4 per month.

Vannessa | 24 comments I'm the complete opposite to you - I'm a teacher so my summers are usually full of reading but once I go back to school, school work and tiredness take over and my reading slows down.

Looking forward to seeing the next challenge :D
