I know I just shared my spring reading challenge but I figured I’d get a little ahead with my summer reading challenge! As usual, this is an honor system reading challenge and you don’t have to officially join anything.

And by honor system, I mean you can do this challenge however fits your reading style and taste! I chose nine prompts which could be three-ish books a month but you can choose one for each month if three would be too much.

I included five suggestions for each prompt but you can obviously find your own in preferred genres if you want. And some of these are interchangeable among the prompts. Heck, you could even use one for four different prompts if you wanted!

I will say, there is a lot of YA on this list but I tried to mix in a good amount of adult, too. I jut have a sweet spot for YA summer books myself. So, all that said, here is my summer reading challenge!

  • Thrift Books is one of the places I check when I’m looking for a book (old ones especially) and want it cheap. It’s great if you like buying used books. With this you can get a free book after spending $30!
  • Pango is one of my go-to’s for finding secondhand books affordably, sold by other readers! If you’re a new user, you can use HEYIMREADING at checkout for $5 off your first $10 purchase! Check out Pango Books here!
  • Libro.fm is the best for buying audiobooks AND supporting your local bookstore. Use code SWITCH to get two free credits (three total) when you sign up for a one-credit membership! Sign up for Libro.fm here!
  • If you want to listen to some of these, consider trying Audible! You can get your first month free (one free book).  Get that Audible deal here.
  • If you want to read more on your Kindle but don’t want to buy books, Kindle Unlimited is a good option, especially if you read a lot of indie authors. Get Kindle Unlimited here!
  • Shop my book lists here! You can find every book list I have on Bookshop.org (except my monthly round-ups) and I add everything I can but they occasionally won’t have some. I do occasionally add extras though. If any lists are empty, they’ll be filled in..eventually! Shop my bookshop.org book lists here.
