I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

There is only one level, read 7 books.

But there's a catch.

Each book must fit a category.



  • Only one category per book.
  • Any genre, format, age group (picture books count!)
  • Feel free to use creative interpretation of the categories.
  • There will be a progress page so you can link up reviews, or at least tell everyone how you're doing.

If you don’t have a blog, you could link to your Goodreads shelf/reviews, or simply comment on this page as you go.
