I so enjoyed this summer reading challenge hosted at The Messy Middle. There were 25 categories and we were tasked with reading at least 7. I completed the challenge and was able to read 12 books.
Here are the books I read for the categories:

A book involving the Olympics, sports, or Japan: Sports: When Stars Collide by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
