On the 27th December 2021 the Goodwill Librarian launched on Facebook her 2022 reading challenge. I made a hasty decision to join this challenge.
Each month I will report my progress in reading books that fulfil her criteria. I will add a link to the Librarything entry for each criterion I tick off.
I was unable to tick any books off my list in July. As I travelled from mid June to early August my reading habit took a hit. Now that I am home again I have resumed reading.
You can see the full list of the challenge criteria here.
I still have find books to fit these criteria:
27. That's a one hit wonder
28. About nature
35. Only published as an ebook
36. About sports
39. By an author who shares your name
40. On audiobook read by the author
42. Written by two authors
45. About current events
This is not a full list of the books I read in July. The remaining titles can be seen on my Librarything or GoodReads accounts.![]() |

As I have been travelling for the past five weeks I am rather late in sharing this post. While I read several books during June only two of them matched the challenge criteria. I need to target the remaining eight criteria by December if I am to complete the challenge. I think I'll manage!!!
