Book Discussion: One Challenge Finished Already

 

February's not over for another week, yet I already have one challenge completed: The RAD 2026 Challenge.




I've always liked how this one is so short, only nine categories. Even so, I don't think I've ever finished it this early. Last year's challenge took me until the end of June. A lot of the categories for this year seemed a little strange and hard to find books for, but I did it all in the first two months of the year. I usually don't do a reading progress post until mid-year, but this fast finish was worthy of a post now.

The Color Coded is another I participate in regularly that also has nine categories. Right now, I'm a little stuck on titles with brown, black, or "implies color" in the tile. I'm working on green right now and have something out for "other color."  What's in a Name has only six categories, but that one arrived late this year and I've only gotten one book for it so far. "Terrain" and "peace" are the ones I have to really look for. Words like "valley," "mountain" and "hill" all count for 'terrain." And "pathways" can include words like "road" or "street." I kind of have some things in mind for those, but nothing definite just yet.

Those who join challenges, how long does it take you to finish them? I try to make mine last through the year, those that are longer, but some I unexpectedly finds for the year is half over, by around May or June.  Now I'm eager to see what I finish next.

Presidents Day Trivia

This was my trivia topic at work for the month. It was held last Friday, since we are off today. I played this video, then we did a Kahoot quiz. I was too tired last week to try to come up with questions based on those from the video as I had done for my last two or three trivia classes. 



Did you know any of these?

National Internet Friends Day

Yet another National day I did not know about. I only found out this morning, thanks to Debra. I was going to write another Friday the 13th post until I saw about this day. Here is some info on the day.
