2010 – read 10 books published in 2010
2011 – read 11 books published in 2011
2012 – read 12 books published in 2012, etc.

The year published can be either the year the book was first published or the year the edition you read was published. (Please make sure you link to that particular edition)

CHALLENGE RULES

★ Books must have the romance genre listed on the main page.

★ For each book you read, please post a link to the title along with the author and the date finished.

★ Rereads are allowed but you must read the book in its entirety.

It’s considered harder because of the publishing date. Not everyone loves reading books from years back. But if you do, then that’s the level for you!

Level 1 - read for 2024-2026 - 75 books

I am undecided yet? Between Lvl 1 (75 books) or Modified Extreme 2020-2026 (143 books)

Resv part 2

Claiming a spot - still need to figure out last year's final tally before I decide which level
I think I'll aim for Level 3. Somehow I've picked up a lot of 1990s books already, so maybe the Level 2 as well? We'll see!

Level 1 - read for 2024-2026 - 75 books
Level 2 - read for 2005-2007 + 2026 - 44 books
Level 3 - read for 2023-2026 - 98 books
Extreme! - read for 2022-2026 - 120 books

2010 – read 10 books published in 2010
2011 – read 11 books published in 2011
2012 – read 12 books published in 2012, etc.

The year published can be either the year the book was first published or the year the edition you read was published. (Please make sure you link to that particular edition)

CHALLENGE RULES
(view spoiler)[
★ Books must be at least 150 pages long or 45k words.
★ Books must have the romance genre listed on the main page.
★ For each book you read, please post a link to the title along with the author and the date finished.
★ Rereads are allowed but you must read the book in its entirety.
★ To reduce clogging of the thread and long, looooong lists of books, please try to use spoiler tags for your list and covers of books. For example:
