My brother talked me into joining him in what he calls “The 52 book-week challenge,” (something he read about somewhere) where we have to finish 1 book per week or 52 books in a year. So my brother and I started making the lists of the 52 books we hope to finish by the end of the year. I’m sharing with you my list, ambitious I know, for some of the books I wrote here are really long. So wish me luck guys and happy reading!
