Level 6 of the Serious Reader Challenge for 2018

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

This is the 6th level of this challenge.

The challenge consists of many levels, each level consisting of 100 books. So, if you have not completed the first 500, go back and complete the previous levels of the Serious Readers Challenge for 2018 that you haven't already finished.

Just create your list of books (at this level, label them 501 through 600) and mark them off with a strike through or a check-mark them as you finish. If you find you can't finish one of the books on your list for any reason, you may replace it with another.

Also, if you just want to decide what you read as you go you can do that as well. Since this challenge is for the year 2018 any books you've read this year may be included.

This is a free choice challenge. Read whatever you want.
