Comments from previous Challenge completers:

“Taking time out to just sit and read: not watching TV, being transported to a different world. I read a couple of books on my bucket list and its very satisfying. I haven’t read for years so it’s nice to get back to it and read for pleasure”

“I normally like to watch movies rather than read. However reading opens up your imagination, leaving endless possibilities of ‘who done it’ ‘what will happen next’, what the characters will look like. I have found that I much prefer reading rather than watching after spoiling 2 movies. I now make time weekly to read and found that I really enjoy it more than ever before”
