Here's what I read this week:
25 points: Read a book about which you’ve heard bad things. — Fifty Shades Darker, E.L. James (301 pages)

PREVIOUS POINTS: 120
TOTAL POINTS: 145
I picked Fifty Shades Darker because I didn't like the first one and my mom said the second one was even worse. I actually liked the second one a little better, but I still wouldn't say I liked it.

Please update me on your progress in a comment on this post. I usually don't write the scoreboard post until Saturday, so as long as you check in by Friday I should have your most up-to-date score on the board. If you forget to check in one week, no worries! Just catch yourself up on the next week's check-in. If you just joined the challenge, welcome! Please feel free to include all books you've read since May 1 that were at least 200 pages long. You can review the full list of rules here. Good luck!
