Clean Sweep ARC Challenge Wrap-Up

   

"Monthly Reflections" is a bookish month in review, hosted at Christian Bookshelf Reviews 

"Clean Sweep ARC Challenge" was a concerted group effort by 84 bloggers to reduce the number of ARC's (Advance Reader Copies) of books on their real or virtual shelves.  Accepting an ARC shows one's commitment to posting a review of the book or material.  This challenge was hosted at Caffeinated Book Reviewer and Angela's Anxious Life.
