Reading Challenge | Lesley Yates

I've signed up for three 2025 #readingchallenges already, and it's not even December! #WickedWords is a given of course if it's running, #ISpyBingo I very much enjoy, and I like the look of the prompts for #booklistqueenchallenge25 too. And I'll be running Four Fours again, hashtagged #fourfoursin25 this time.

What are you thinking of signing up for? Or running?

Lauredhel Oh and we totally should do Pantone again #Pantone2025 @PuddleJumper @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @IndoorDame @Eggs @mariaku21 @Enchanted_Bibliophile @Itchyfeetreader @AmyG @peanutnine @BookwormAHN @OriginalCyn620 @Librariana @EmilyCGreene @julieclair 24h

OriginalCyn620 I totally dropped the ball with this year‘s Pantone challenge, but if it comes back for 2025, I will do better! 🤪 23h

See All 22 Comments

PuddleJumper I completely forgot about the Pantone challenge. #Roll100 #GottaCatchemAll #QueerBC will continue in 2025. I've also got a prompt maze #FrozenSick which is a whenever thing and #ReadYourDamnDanmei I think that's all 23h

Lauredhel @OriginalCyn620 I've just starting yoinking colours for a #pantone2025 colour chart, so if no one else steps up to do it, it will still be happening! 22h

Lauredhel @PuddleJumper OMG so many to explore! 22h

Jas16 I think that 2025 is going to be a challenge free year for me. 21h

Lauredhel @Jas16 enjoy your reading! 21h

AmyG I am only doing a challenge that requires books I own. It‘s out of control over here. 🤣 So….Bookspin, Author-a-Month if I have the author, TBR Tarot. My only exception to my rule is the Sunday Buddy Read. 20h

Enchanted_Bibliophile Another one on my 2025 list 🤩 19h

Born.A.Reader @AmyG that's the one I need to do. My owned TBR is soo out of control 😅 19h

thebacklistbook I'm doing a few challenges. For next year I'm still plugging away at read the world, the owls, #fictionaltraveler , and #tbronly2025, I am still deciding about #frozensick . I am of course running my #yuletidereads starting December 21. 19h

willaful Definitely doing BookSpin , QueerBC, and adding Roll100 this year. I love Four Fours! Will continue #BacklistReadathon and #TBRTarot if they're on. And finishing up #192025!

@Jas16 Do what makes you happy! 16h

willaful Oh, I forgot @Faranae's #URC. 16h

Faranae @willaful 😭How could you forget my URC? (😆) 15h

willaful @Faranae I know! I've got a list a mile long of possible prompts! 15h

mariaku21 I'm always game to do Pantone reading @Lauredhel amongst any others but I'm not thinking about 2025. I still have books this year 😭🤣 12h

BookwormAHN I'm not sure how many challenges I'm doing now. I host #StarWarsBuddyRead and I've joined #BookSpin with #ReadOrDonate plus #TBRTarot #LosersClub #AuthorAMonth and a few others however I'd Iike to Pantone again since I usually can match the books I'm already reading and don't usually have to look to hard for them. 7h

Lauredhel @Enchanted_Bibliophile Cool, I haven't seen many others doing Booklist Queen's challenge on Litsy!

  @TheBacklistBook Just added #FictionalTraveler to my list. The more the merrier, I can always trim later if I'm not managing.

  @willaful #URC I have not heard of before *scuttles off to join* @Faranae   

@mariaku21 @BookwormAHN I'll be organising #Pantone2025 over the next week or so. Stay tuned   6h

TheAromaofBooks Lots of fun challenges in this thread!! I'm already entangling myself in way too many buddy reads as usual 😂 I'm especially excited about once again trying to read all of Agatha Christie's books in published order, this time lead by @Librarybelle I'm also finishing her #192025 challenge. #ISpyBingo will be back, and I also do my personal challenges of trying to read the USA and read at least one book from every year of the last 100 years. ⬇ 7m

TheAromaofBooks I'm also joining @julieclair 's challenge for #FictionalTraveler as well as whichever #GottaCatchEmAll region @PuddleJumper chooses - plus #Roll100 !! I'm interested in the Pantone Challenge which I did in 2023 but not last year, so I'll keep my eye out for that one as well!! 5m

Lauredhel @TheAromaofBooks I'll add you to the pantone tag list now

Heir of Fire | Sarah J Maas

#two4tuesday Nothing specific, my usual goal of one book is locked in on Goodreads and storygraph. All my challenges are on storygraph. I'm chipping away at the OWLS and working on Read the world as well as #yuletidereads which is also on litsy and run by me. Then I have #fourfoursin24 ,also litsy, by @Lauredhel. And finally #seasonalcozies.

Into the Drowning Deep | Mira Grant

pick

Another reread! I finished this book the night before New Years in Italy in 2019 and I still f*cking love it. The science is solid, the characters are wonderful, the writing is GORGEOUS. I immediately lent it to my coworker (who has a Master‘s in marine biology) so I‘ll add a pic when they give it back :)

Mistlefoe: A Mead Realm Tale | Kimberly Lemming

so-so

While I dislike insta-love, there wasn‘t a fated mates plot at least. Also, I wish there was more on the Mistlefoe game! And the book just…ended. I want more! At least this explains where Alexis came from.
