Reading Challenges

Do you want to challenge yourself to read more? Or read outside your comfort genre? Are you trying to get back into reading but don' know where to start? Or are you just tired of choosing your next read and want someone else to do it for you? Then check out these reading challenges! We've collected a few on this page that we at lala are participating in, and a few others we think look fun. Click on the links to get more information, and happy reading!
