Read A Cozy Mystery

February’s challenge is to read a cozy mystery! In the very depths of winter, what’s better than curling up with some hot cocoa or tea and a good book? The mystery novels on this list are all feel-good and lighthearted, featuring plenty of baked goods for maximum coziness. Grab your comfiest blanket and start sleuthing!

March

Read A Book Translated to English

In March, we are focusing on books translated to English. A good translation can unlock doors to worlds outside of our own. With so much to discover, it’s sure to be a flare of good reading, good grasp and better understanding of one another in our society.

Read the First Book in a Series

April’s reading challenge is to read the first book in a series! You can start by selecting one of the titles on this list, or feel free to pick up the first book in any series – that still counts!

Next up…Read a book about music!
