- Compliment Your Mirror Day (July 3 ): The person in your mirror is beautiful (or handsome). So, compliment your mirror for displaying this beautiful person. Read a book with a narcissistic protagonist, or a book with a beautiful (or handsome) lead.

-Cheer Up the Lonely Day (July 11): It is an opportunity to make a lonely person happy. Read a book where the protagonist is a loner.

-Embrace Your Geekness Day (July 13): It is a great day to be a Geek. Or, to know a Geek. Read a book where the protagonist is or acts like a geek.

- Pandemonium Day (July 14 ): It is a day of sheer bedlam, and utter chaos. Its a day when all sort of unexpected things occur. Read a book where something unexpected happens in the protagonist’s life.

-Moon Day (July 20 ): It commemorates the day man first walked on the moon in 1969. Read a book which has moon on the cover.

-Cousin's Day (July 24): It’s a day to get together with your cousins. Hang out, just chill, or do anything you want to do. Read a book where the main protagonist has a helpful or friendly cousin.

- All or Nothing Day (July 26): It is certainly a day of extremes. There's definitely no grey area in how you spend this day. Read a book with a character of extreme temperament, i.e. either he is extremely hot-headed or extremely sweet or extremely calm, and so on.
