Here at Calibre, we know summer is really here when we launch our summer reading challenge. In support of the great work done all year round by the Reading Agency, we know how important books are and we love the summer reading challenges which are a great way to promote the benefits of reading, but with a sprinkle of fun and a dash of challenge thrown in!

For this year's challenge, we're asking you to 'try something new'. We want you to pledge to read 5 books in an 8-week period and 4 can be anything you like - fiction or non-fiction BUT your 5th choice needs to be something that’s completely out of your lane. Perhaps a choice from your least favourite genre?

The important thing is to find a book that you would never normally read and give it a go. All members who sign up will be entered into a prize draw to win a £50 Amazon voucher.

We're all joining in here at Calibre HQ and if you fancy giving it a go, all the details and the sign-up form can be found here. And whether you sign up or not, we hope you all have a great summer of reading!
