The Race is On!

19 Jun

At the start of this year, M1 challenged me to a race – to read 30 books by the end of the year! “Sure!” I said, after all I had a headstart, having completed ‘The Bride Quartet’ by Nora Roberts and a collection of more titles by her awaits me.

When M2 learnt about the challenge, she quipped, “Mummy, I wanna join the race but the books I ordered from Scholastics (at school) have not arrived. Can we go to the bookstore instead because I am so behind!”

You can tell my girls love to read.

Four months into the challenge, I made a wrong move as I picked up ‘Pompeii’ from a book fair as my book number eight. Let’s just say if the race was about the Candy Crush Saga, I’d win hands down.
