Second attempt at this challenge, this time I'm trying a different approach. This time I'm doing a variety of challenges, including ones I created, To keep it neat and simple, the complete list is on my challenge thread in The Reading Challenge Group. There. I'll be planning and listing the challenges, here will be more a log of how these challenges are going.
In other words, this is my challenge log for the year of all the challenges I do.
In total, I’m doing 7 challenges. Here's the list of challenges I am doing this year:
🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰
I'm doing 2 challenges with SciFi and Fantasy Book Club :
- Short Fiction Challenge - 2026 TBR Cleanup Challenge: You Are What You Read
For the second one, I've set a target to 20, and called my bookshelf: I've called my bookshelf: Anisha's SFF Bites
🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰
I'm reading more short stories this year to keep up my momentum of reading and created 26Shorts2026, there are 2 versions, Classic Reads and All reads.
On my personal page - Read It Quote It - I am noting these but with quotes that speak to me.
The focus this year for - Read It Quote It - is short works, this includes the short works I read here.
26Shorts2026, the Classic Read version, is also one of the challenges in "Never too Late to Read Classics"
🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰
I've got loads of books that I want to read but have been stumped of how to get to them and created a Long Reads Workout to get to the many, many long books I have but stay on shelf.
🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰
Reading books that have something in common is the thing I like the most about reading, as not only does it make it fun but it also creates a richer reading experience for me. With this idea in mind, I created Like for Like I'm doing this challenge in two parts: the main round and the bonus round. For each I am reading ten book, and the one thing they have in common:
Like for Like: main round - what ties these books together is theme: ‘power of love’.
Like for Like: bonus round - what ties these books together is theme: ‘revenge’.
🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰🔰
side note: I would put in the links to the other pages but I'm figuring it won't let me do this.
Writing this up was the easy part, next part, the reading. I have a mixture of light and big reads, fictions and nonfiction, and this year, with the help of these challenges I am hoping will see me through this; which will be my biggest challenge of the lot. I am excited about this but I'm not sure how this will work out. What I've learnt in the last few years is it's more about having fun trying and this is what I'm most looking forward to, just trying.
