Adding extra flavor to reading with a reading challenge!
When it’s time to challenge your reading habits, you can seek inspiration and add extra flavor to your reading with various challenges. One of the most well-known is the annual reading challenge published by the Helmet libraries, which many book bloggers, Instagrammers, and TikTokers participate in.
