This is not that difficult to accomplish. My record was reading (and hopefully understanding) 80 books in one year.

I'm trying different genres. Initially, I used to read-only none fiction for personality development. But now I have started reading fiction novels too. I tried action and fantasy, both of will I liked a lot. Right now I am reading horror, which seems boring. Before the end of 2021, I wanted to have my best top 5 fiction books.

Reading challenge where you have to learn foreign languages like Latin or Chinese. And speak it within a month fluently.
If you are having a bad day, let people see that you are having a good day...Spread good vibes, people are going through a lot already. :tiphat:

I think for a reading challenge I can read about 200 good books a year. Did that during the lock down and beat my expectations by reading over 300!

How about a weekly challenge to see who reads the highest number of books?

It's not about how many books one reads its about how much content and understanding one gets after reading a particular number of books either one or more.

I would love to do a challenge where I read a different genre for every time I start a new book! I tend to stick to one genre whenever I like what I read, and I'd love to mix that up a bit

Write a review for all of the books you read, you can submit them to your local library’s site or other websites online. I am doing this to help improve my writing skills.

This is a good challenge and I'm jumping on the challenge.
The type of books I enjoy reading are
science fiction
Historical
Drama
Fantasy.
Greek mythology is something new to me, but I will challenge myself to hop along.

I had a challenge of reading 15 books this year. I’m glad to say I’m going to read much more. And I’m reading more genres as well to discover new things out of my usual “comfort zone”.

Sooo...obviously I do not have the Mythology challenge done yet.
I need to double check some things before completing it.


Here's hoping I can finish it soon!
