So I had this idea for a challenge a while back, where you have a few prompts and depending on which one you check off, that directs your path to the next set of options. A sort of choose-your-own adventure except with reading prompts 😂 I wasn't sure how to make it work, but came up with (obviously brilliant) idea of putting it into a spreadsheet, where each cell is a step in the maze. So I'm posting the link to the Google sheet and if anyone ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) wants to try to find their way through, please join me!! I've blacked out all the cells so you can't see any of the other prompts unless you purposefully un-highlight it (so you'll have to save a copy in order to use the maze). You can leave it that way, or un-highlight the entire thing so you can strategize. You can use one book per square, or if a book checks off a prompt, and then also checks off a prompt in the next square, you can ⬇ 2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) go as far as you can with that book. However works for you - this isn't a very organized challenge because I'm still kind of figuring it out as I go. So if you try it and enjoy it (or hate it LOL) let me know and let me know if you think it can be improved!! I've been playing with it all month. You can also make it an official 2022 challenge for starting... or start tonight, I'm cool with whatever, but let me know if you make it to the ⬇ (edited) 2y

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) finish. Here's the link - I'd love to know your thoughts!!!!

I'm not really going to have any “official“ checkins for it since I have no idea how it's going to work, but I would love to hear about your progress (or lack thereof LOL) so keep me posted if you think of it!! 2y

TheAromaofBooks @janeycanuck - Don't worry, I have a little lookout tower so just send up some distress flares if you get lost! 😂 2y

Bookworm54 Looks like fun :) 2y

claudiuo Love the maze idea! Finished a non-fiction book yesterday (The Man Who Saw Through Time by Loren Eiseley - not in the Litsy db) even if I wasn't planning on it for this month, so now I can move on to the next stage. Thank you so much! All your ideas are awesome and help me read more! (edited) 2y

TheAromaofBooks @claudiuo - I'm glad that you are enjoying it!! I have been stuck on my third space for the last couple of books! 😂 2y

Soubhiville This is really cool! May I ask when the entire book will be posted? My topics bookclub has chosen “fairytale or myth retellings” for our Feb topic, and if your book is completely posted by then, I‘d love to make it my choice. 😊 4y

JazzFeathers @Soubhiville you've made my day with this comment 💚 Unfortunately, l've only just started posting and l think it will take me about a year to finish. But thanks so much for asking. 4y
