Once again I am signing up to reading challenges for the coming year, as a way to add to my reading diet and explore new areas of knowledge and understanding.
In 2024, I will take part in these challenges:
Non Fiction Reading Challenge My goal is to become a ‘Non Fiction Nibbler’, reading 6 books from any 6 of the 12 categories (details about the challenge, hosted by Book’d Out, here)
Historical Fiction Reading Challenge Of course! I’m aiming for the ‘Mediaeval’ level of 15 books. This one is hosted by the Intrepid Reader. Sign up and find out more here.
Books by First Nations authors This one is my own personal challenge, not an official one. I’m aiming for 6 books by Australian (or other) First Nations authors.
Cloak and Dagger Reading Challenge Hosted by Carol’s Notebook (check out the blog here) This is a new one for me; I’m having a go for fun, as I do enjoy a good crime/mystery read. The challenge also includes thriller/suspense/true crime books. I’m aiming to become an ‘Amateur Sleuth’ by reading between 5 – 15 books in these genres.
So, that’s my reading sorted. Oh, and add the book group choices already programmed for the year, plus ones I review for publishers…I’ll be behind a book somewhere if you need me.
Have you joined a reading challenge or reading group, and if so, did it help you to expand your reading repertoire?
