I finally got 2 Bingo‘s for the month. I read 7 books this month, I loved them all, so it was a good month of reading. Still need to finish my LMBPC book for the month of July (sorry group, it‘s been a busy week with moving in). #bookpinbingo I also read my #bookspin book for this month

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Fantastic month!! 2y

Here's the #BookSpinBingo card! First, I put our official numbers (18 & 1) back in the mix. Then I drew them all out & wrote them down as I went, meaning the official numbers are just mixed into the card with the rest! As you can see, 21-25 are both labeled with their numbers & also as free spaces, so you can use them to match however you wrote your list. To score a bingo, just read books (in any order) that are in any row or column!! MORE INFO ⬇

TheAromaofBooks 1 - I‘m tagging everyone who specifically said they wanted to participate in the Bingo aspect of the challenge, but ANYONE IS WELCOME. So if you posted a #BookSpin list and now you think the Bingo looks fun – just jump right in!! If you actually didn't want to do Bingo & I tagged you, just ignore it - so sorry to bother you! My tag list is a disaster, so please just let me know if you want added or removed!! ⬇ 2y
TheAromaofBooks 2 - Remember – NO PRESSURE!!!! If this starts to stress you out, just take that page right out of your journal and pretend it never existed!! This challenge is to encourage you to read, not to make you feel like reading is a chore!!!

3 - FREE SPACES can be filled with any book that is NOT already on your list!! ⬇
2y
TheAromaofBooks 4 & final - As a reminder, only the “official” BookSpin/DoubleSpin numbers will count towards giveaway entries. I don‘t want the giveaway to be stacked against people who aren‘t able to read lots of books each month. So basically there is still a maximum of 2 entries possible per month no matter how many books you read from your list. This bingo card is just for fun & glory! 😁

Thanks for playing & happy reading!!!

Has anyone seen the Read Harder Challenge as a bingo chart for the 2017 challenge? If you have, I'd appreciate it if you could reply with the link.

shelf-improvement I don't have the link, but do you mean the #LitsyReadingChallenge? The only bingo cards I saw was under that hashtag, not #ReadHarder. 7y
youngreadrshelf @shelf-improvement I thought in past years I had seen something that looked like bingo cards rather than the list. Maybe I was mistaken. 7y

Titles: LGBT - If I Was Your Girl, Stories - American Housewife and Soho Book of 80s short Fiction, Free - Moon Called, Local - My Sunshine Away, Country - The Shadowy Horses

Zelma @KVanRead @Yournewfriendsams it it fun. A great way to have a little guidance in my reading but still lots of choice. It also got me out of my comfort zone a bit. @MrBook thanks! 8y
Zelma @L_auren you're playing too? How is it going? 😀 8y
Zelma @ahenke Susanna Kearsley is one my absolute favorites. I have been careful not to read her catalog too quickly so I always have something of hers waiting in the wings. 8y
L_auren @Zelma 5-6 books away from a blackout!! 8y
Zelma @L_auren I definitely can't do it before Labor Day but I can certainly achieve a blackout by the end of the year. 8y
