Yearly Book Challenge



So, I'm in a group over on Goodreads, and they have come up with an excellent idea for this year reading-wise. There are 52 categories you must complete/read, but you are not allowed to use the same book to fill in more than one category. As the group is a New Adult Book Club, the books tend to be New Adult. Also, besides #13 on the challenge, the books need to be a new read. A book you have never read before. Sounds exciting right?

Anyway, I thought it would be fun if I included it here on my blog. I will update the page each time I complete a challenge, and since I'll be reading new books, I'll be posting reviews also.

The Challenge:
1. A book published this year
2. A book that is more than 10 years old
3. A book by an author you love
4. A book by an author you’ve never read before
