The goal of this challenge is to read books from the library and not buy them. You’d think this would be easy for me since I work in a library and to some extent you would be right. However, many of my favorite authors, I simply buy their new books so I can support them as well as read them without having to wait in line for them.

I do read my share of books from the library tho’, so I’m going to start myself off with level 2 – “Thrifty Reader – 24 books”. I may end up moving up the ladder, but level 2 is a good place to start, since many of my books for review come as an ebook from the publisher.

** UPDATE February 28, 2017: Since I’ve already hit 17 books in the first two months of the year, I’m upping my challenge to level 4 – “Library Card on Fire – 50+ books”. **
