There are lots of great challenges that get us to stretch our horizons, try new things, or catch up on Classics. I find I get so busy with them that I forget to save time for favorites. I forget that I'm dying to read more books by authors I already love.
This challenge is a reminder to do that. Don't put off reading your favorite authors for the sake of strangers you may or may not enjoy. Allow yourself a little bit of self-indulgence. Seize the Day!
From September through the end of the year, choose those books you most want to read, by favorite authors, or maybe books in a favorite series. Treat yourself.
