I'm bringing back my Memoir Reading Challenge for 2018. This year, however, I'm doing it differently, as a checklist. To participate, you must read a minimum of five memoirs from any of the categories listed. One book can only count for one category. Re-reads are acceptable. You do not need a blog to participate. All book formats count.
Books must be read on or after January 1, 2018 to count.
Challenge runs from January 1 to December 31, 2018.
Books may cross over to other challenges in which you are participating.
Books must be labeled as memoirs to count. Need some reading ideas?
Here are some lists to get ideas for reading:

Memoirs are always high on my go-to list.
Memoirs are so great. I love them! I'm going to add this to my ever-growing list of reading challenges next year! Thank you!
I'm in! I have enjoyed your 2017 Memoir Bingo Reading Challenge, and I've read more memoirs than I thought that I would. It definitely stretched me as a reader, so thanks for that!
Hi Jamie,
I have always wanted to read more memoirs, so this is the perfect reading challenge. Thanks for hosting. Have a great day!
Oooh, I'm so happy to see the re-read option (#27), and already have a book in mind for that. ;)
This sounds very interesting. Count me in!
I'm in! Don't have a blog though.
I'm in!
I'm glad I found this reading challenge. Memoirs have become my jam lately.
