Unofficial Trim Challenge
The Unofficial Trim Challenge is hosted by my PBT group. Each of us created a list of 24 books that are on our TBR. Each month, a participating member will randomly pick a remaining number between 1 through 24. Then, we read the book associated with that number on our list. Because there are 24 books, this challenge will last for two years.
Below is the list of my 24 books and numbers picked each month. I’ll put a next to the book if I read it or an out if I don’t.
