Hey y’all! I took part in the library love reading challenge in 2021, which as you can maybe guess from the title, involves reading books that you borrow from the library. Sweet and simple! 😊
During my check in post from July, I was at 28 books and figured I’d aim for 36. The year prior, I hadn’t hit the tier past that, so it seemed like a reasonable goal considering I’d have less time in 2021! So how did it pan out?
The levels for the challenge are:
- Dewey Decimal: Read 12 books (my goal)
- Thrifty Reader: Read 24 books
- Overdrive Junkie: Read 36 books
- Library Addict: Read 48 books
- Library Card on Fire: Read 60+ books
My reads:

So I read 53 books from the library last year! I read 124 books total, so that’s 43% of my books that came from the library! I don’t know why I keep being surprised by how high the number is when I already know I really do love libraries! 🥰
Also only 19 of them have posted reviews on here?? WOW that’s so low!! I have a lot to catch up on! 🙂
