Duration: January 1 - December 31, 2025
Inspired by the classic Monopoly board game, this yearly challenge takes bibliophiles around the board through forty bookish game spaces. You will read books related to the property color groups; original game tokens; book, author and character traits; and community/group activities!
You may read prompts in order, randomly, or roll dice to choose your next square. If you print the Bibliopoly board for tracking, please note that prompts may be abbreviated in the graphic. The prompt list contains more detail.
Prompts may be repeated. As with board game play, you may add up to four houses 🏠 and a hotel 🏨 for repeating a prompt from a completed property group -- Purple, Blue, Pink, Orange, Red, Yellow, Green, Dark Blue.
**New player levels have been added for those who wish to build houses and hotels on their properties.
