Lauren Smith Hi Guys, sorry for the late post - the move has been hectic so I completely forgot about this :)

For those who don't know, the epic challenge is for 500+ page tomes - the epic novels we sometimes shy away from especially when trying to complete other reading challenges. You only need to read one 500+ page book in the 3-month period to complete the challenge, but you can read as many as you want and list them here, with the number of pages you've read.

Happy reading!
