Before ending this, I'd love to hear your feedback about this, offer suggestions if you have any, and if you're interested, express what sort of challenges you'd like to see in the future! :)

I had a blast doing this, and I got most of my reading done during this challenge! :D I also really liked it because it forced me out of my comfort zone, there are some books I most likely would have never read otherwise.
I don't really have many suggestions, but perhaps something to do with your TBR? Like "Read at least 5 books off of your TBR", and you can't get a new book to fill it, it has to literally be some of the oldest books on your shelf.
Thank you so much for hosting this! It really was a blast :D I look forward to participating again!

Thank you so much, Hallie :) This was real fun!

I had a blast, so goal accomplished! Thank you, Hallie, for moderating and all participants. I read triple the amount I expected, and some books I wouldn’t have found otherwise, which are both pretty cool. I had fun with my team!!! I would do this again in the winter or summer. The Bingo was my favorite part. Maybe have a map, and read books set in different places. The pacing and duration were good. I like the TBR idea. All around a super-fun experience.
