Nothing but Books discussion

The December Reading Challenge is here! This is slightly different from November's. The goal is to read as many books as you can and they should fit the prompts which are listed below. As in November's you will earn points for the page count of the book. In addition to that there will be bonus points if the book is 'The Book of the Month' in this group and if you read a book as a buddy read in this group. This time you would be able to participate as a solo participant or be a part of a team like the last time.

Sign ups will be closed on the 30th of December and teams will be announced on the following day. Only the books read during December will count, but you can still enter the books that you started reading before December and finish in December.

This is how you will earn points,

1 - 99 pages = 1 point
100 - 199 pages = 2 points
