Are you looking for a reading challenge or a challenging read?
In good news for libraries and book sellers everywhere, Mark Zuckerberg has announced a reading challenge: "My challenge for 2015 is to read a new book every other week - with an emphasis on learning about different cultures, beliefs, histories, and technologies .... I'm excited for my reading challenge. I've found reading books very intellectually fulfilling. Books allow you to fully explore a topic and immerse yourself in a deeper way than most media today. I'm looking forward to shifting more of my media diet towards reading books."
