Second Chance Challenges discussion

SEPTEMBER 2020 READING CHALLENGE CLEAN UP
DATE: 09/01/20 - 00/00/00



It's time for September's challenge clean up!

Take a look at your challenges and decide what needs to be cleaned up and marked off your list next. This is kind of like a read-a-thon...with a twist. The goal is to help us complete a difficult challenge - or one that has been lingering for a while :)

To Start: You will need to pick a specific "target" to work on...a challenge that is proving difficult to finish, a challenge that needs just a few books to complete....any reading challenge you've been working on for some time, but haven't been able to finish.

Please Note: You are welcome to use just a section of a specific challenge if you prefer. For example: If you are working on the Ben & Jerry's Challenge, and you have just a letter or two (or more) to complete a certain flavor, you are welcome to use that as your challenge clean up goal.

Next: Post your specific target or goal below, and you are ready to get started.
