Book Challenge 2022 / Books teach us to care about others

[muppet]

“Rintaro did his best to explain to the invisible listener.
‘I think the power of books is that -  that they teach us to care about others. It’s a power that gives people courage and also supports them in turn.’
- “The Cat Who Saved Books” (Sosuke Natsukawa)












Find out why Miki Fujimoto, Sayuna Hama, Minami Hamabe, Sei Shiraishi,
Mana Ashida, Asuka Saito, Miku Tanaka, Mugi Kadowaki, RM (BTS),
Rikako Yagi, Meru Tashima, Yurina Hirata, & Kasumi Arimura
all recommend Reading for fun and knowledge




1. Make a post, preferably stating a goal of how many books you want to read this year.
2. Edit that post as you read throughout the year, slowly adding to the list of books you've read. Sorting the list by month is recommended.
3. Don't create additional posts, just keep editing your original post. Graphic novels count as .25 (in other words, 4 graphic novels = one book)
