A new one I want to take part in this year, hosted by Shh, I am Reading. I like the idea of getting to choose between two different themes for each month. Each I do will be determined as each month arrives.
Shh, I am Reading's This or That Reading Challenge- 2022
Welcome readers! If you love reading challenges but often find the large lists a little daunting and sometimes hard to follow like me then you'll be pleased to find that my reading challenge has 2 challenges a month equaling to 24 challenges AND you only have to choose one or the other. You're, absolutely, welcome to choose both, though.
Bloggers and non-bloggers alike are welcomed! If you post on social media, be sure to use the hashtag #thisorthat2022

Wow - I do hope that lots of the books you read cross challenges, and can be counted more than once.
ReplyDeleteYes, that is allowed for most of these challenges.
DeleteThat's quite a challenge.
