Welcome to Tackle That TBR Vol. 8, the annual challenge where I give you a list of 50+ prompts, and you choose how you wish to complete them. (Omg, can y'all believe another year has just flown by?!)

This challenge runs from January 1st-December 31st, 2025

As you all can see, this year's theme is very fantasy heavy with some prompts requiring you to read for specific tropes, subgenres, creatures, etc. That being said, there are plenty of prompts that are able to be used towards other genres for those who are not fantasy readers.

As in years past, you all get to choose which level and which prompts to complete. This year's levels include some of the most famous fictional characters in fantasy, so choose what you like or whatever is doable for you!

All prompts are listed by category to make it easier to pick and there are no page limits for completion. Read what you want, how you want, whatever you want. Unless, of course, the prompt specifies otherwise. Happy reading!

LiteraryCryptid | 220 comments Question - for the prompt Witches and Wizards - 4. MC is "the chosen one". . . Does the character have to be explicitly stated as "chosen one"?

@LiteraryCryptid--nope, doesn't have to be explicitly stated, just as long as you feel the character falls into that general category 😊
