Abstract	This paper proposes a way of integrating self-directed reading into a collaborative classroom with formative and summative tasks as well as facilitating integration with the target culture, and familiarity with the target language in a variety of settings. Linking to literature on motivation, and drawing on case-study experience, an approach to introducing students to reading for pleasure in the target language will be suggested. The core element of the project is complete freedom of choice for students in the book they select, enabling students to match their personal reading tastes to their target language reading. Students benefit from the selection process and from discussion and comparison with peers on the selected texts. Students' awareness of forms of literature in the target language is enriched through the diversity of texts chosen within the cohort.
