  2. These were such fun challenges! I totally agree you should come to PA sometime-it's pretty awesome! Ireland and Italy made my list as well and I've been to TX two times now! The I Spy was really fun but also kinda hard with mainly Christian books!

    1. It was kind of hard - especially since you could only choose books that you own. It was still really fun, though! :)

  4. We used some of the same books. :) Love your choices! I hope you get a lot of reading done today! I'm about half-way through my goals, but I might not quite make it by one book. We'll see.
