Since the start of 2014, I have been taking part in a book challenge. This is available to anybody to do as it's a personal challenge and you can set your own goals to match your busy, or not, lifestyles. I haven't so much set myself as a challenge, so much as just seeing what I can manage. All you need for this challenge are:
Yourself
A money box, jar, or tin
Books - lots and lots of books

So this is how it works. It's very simple. You read a book and once you finish it, you write the name of that book down on a piece of paper and then put it into your box for safe keeping. When the end of the year rolls round, you look to see how many books you have read. It will be easier to keep count this way, plus you can relive some of your favourite memories as you remember books you had forgotten you read in the past year! This is my 'book box.'
Since January 2014, two months ago, I have been keeping track of the books I have read and I will be counting them up at the end of the year. Such a simple idea and anyone can do it! It's odd just how much enjoyment comes from finishing a book, writing down it's name, and inserting it into a jar for safe keeping to revisit at the end of the year. Books give us a lot of emotions, good times and bad, and experience. Have you ever had someone ask you at the end of a year how many books you have read, or if you had read a specific title but you can't remember? Your problem is now solved! If you decide to start doing this, from March 2014 to March 2015, let us know how it goes for you. We also want to see your containers for these precious pieces of paper.
