My library is having an adult summer reading event. It's like Bingo but with book stuff. So, like, one Bingo square is "read a book by an author you've never read before," and another is "read a bit set in a different country," and "read the first book in a series." And you get something for doing it. Not entirely sure what the prize is, but I am really trying to do it, and I am trying to do it honestly lol. I have to admit that I am tempted to fudge it a little because a few years ago they were giving out free bags with our library's name on them, and I wanted one so bad, and I read my 10 adult books pretty fast that were required for it, and I turned in my sheet pretty early, and they were already out of bags.... :mccry:

Oh awesome! How do they check if one read all the stuff? Can't sb simply put a crest on every box after a week and pretend having read so much?
But all in all it sounds interesting, I would love to do sth like that!
