Love reading? Love family? Love researching family history? Want a family-friendly reading challenge?  

Goal: To read a book from the birth year of your selected family members. You do not have to mention them by name, unless you want. But do please list the years you'll be reading. You may include yourself in your 'family tree.' 

Minimum of three books (and three family members). You can read more, of course.
