YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

✩✩✩✩✩✩✩✩✩✩


July 2026 will be YA Buddy Reader's Corner ♥'s 14-year-anniversary, so to celebrate we will be holding our 14th MMC - Mega Month Challenge!

This year's MMC will be made up of the following challenges -

* Darts Tournament Challenge (Group Reading Challenge) - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

* The 14-Year Anniversary Challenge (Solo Reading Challenge) - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

* GBR Challenge (Solo Reading Challenge) - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

* The Bonus Fairy Lottery - https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

- There is no need to sign up for the GBR reading challenge, or the 14-Year Anniversary challenge, simply post your reviews once things get started ☺

- You may join our Group Buddy Reads at any time from July 1st to July 31st. Normal buddy read rules apply, if people have posted comments about the book before you, we will expect you to have replied to at least one comment.

- You may comment on The Bonus Fairy Lottery thread early, but the first draw will not happen until July 1st ☺

- All challenges will end at 00:01 on August 1st 2026 PST.

- Final scores will be posted on this thread on August 1st/2nd 2026☺

There is no need to sign up on this thread, any points you earn in the individual challenges will automatically find their way here at the end. This is just a place to list all of the challenges taking place for this month as easy reference and where the final scores will be posted at the end ☺

It is Very Important that you sign up for The Darts Tournament Challenge as soon as possible if you wish to take part. It may not be possible for you to join a team once teams are posted xx

Any questions, feel free to ask ☺

No non reading challenge part this time (no covers to find, etc)?

Unfortunately since GRs no longer allows private messaging, and that was how members turned in their answers, we have left that one out this year. But we added a second individual challenge so that there's still two solo challenges to earn more points.

Hi! Question about the GBR challenge!

Re; "Each book and its sequels" -If I am reading Dungeon Crawler Carl book 8, I can post updates on the DCC GBR thread and count it as a buddy read?

Hi Brianna! Since the GBR is for the first book in the series, you would need to read and post updates on the first book, then any sequels you read after you can continue to post for those as well. But unfortunately you can't start at the end of the series. I hope this helps!

The bonus fairy lottery is now open ☺ -
