This year for the first time I am doing book challenges. I may have bit off more then I can chew or in this case read but I am having so much fun seeing how much I can get read and how many prompts I can fill in.
Book challenges
The 52 book club's 2023 reading challenge plus mini challenges
POPSUGAR 2023 reading challenge
Creating & Co 2023 Reading Royalty challenge plus mini challenges
Buzzword 2023 reading challenge
Read your bookshelf 2023 challenge
LiterALLy BOOKish's Alphabet title challenge
The Nerdy Bookworm 50 books a year reading challenge 2023
Plus I always do the x number of books a year through Goodreads, same as last year 52 books and the quarterly kindle challenges.
With all these challenges I want to read my physical books and kindle books before using the library or buying any books for the challenges. I plan to use comics, graphic novels, audiobooks and rereads as well.
I have had so much fun sitting down with all the prompts and planning out the books I want to read for them. I have multiple books for each prompt in most cases because I am a mood reader and you just never know what I will be in the mood for.
I know their are prompts that I won't be doing. Just not interesting in those types of books. While I know these challenges are meant to help get you out of your comfort zone but for me that is a one way ticket to a reading slump. If I have to read a book then I am done.
I plan to use one book over multiple prompts if I can but not in the same challenge unless it is a mini challenge.
I will be doing a book journal to keep track of the books I read this year for the first time and what prompts I use for each book. I got one off of Amazon.
Plus I have a binder with all the challenges printed out. I know totally old school but I love it. Keeps everything organized and at hand to keep me on track.
I am using Storygraph for the digital tracking of my challenges. I have plans to print them out at the end of the year on sticker paper and add it to a bullet journal that I will be making through out the year.
Can't you tell I have too much time on my hands. lol
Will update this post as I go with other reading challenge info as I go.
