anyone else interested in doing this challenge again in 2015?

I'm up for doing it! It will help me get back in the reading mood this upcoming year. Going to put the info up.

HOW TO COMPLETE CHALLENGE:

Choose up to 15 book categories and read 15 books for each one.

Remember that you must read 15 books for each category.

Rules:
~Rereads count. Other qualifications are up to reader's discretion.
~To count, books must be finished on or between January 1, 2015 and Deccember 31, 2015 .
~Each book can only be put in one category.

Sample Categories:

~~These are simply sample categories that you can do! Feel free to come up with your own, mix the ones below together, change them entirely, etc.!~~

*First in Series
*Second in Series
*Further in Series (second+, third+, fourth+, etc.)
*Stand Alones
*eBooks/Audiobooks
*New-to-You Authors
*New-to-You Series
*Paranormal Creatures
*Rereads
*Seasons including holiday themes (i.e. Halloween/pumpkin on cover/zombies)
*Dust Reads (books you've had forever but haven't read)
*Alphabet Soup (check the 3rd ~ in the Special Notes list)
*Travel (books that are set in places you want to visit (i.e. Die for Me is set in Paris))
*Beach Side Reads (based by the ocean or a good read at the beach)
*Strong Heroines
*Bad Boys
*Plain Janes (simple book covers)
*Contemporary/Realistic Fiction
*Short stories/novella/books of poems/anthologies
*Botanical Studies (plants/flowers on cover)
*Noah's Ark (dealing with animals, a zoo, people with pets, etc.)
*Published in 2012 (or another specific year or time range)
*Listopias (pick a list and read books from it)
*1001 Books to Read Before You Die (doesn't matter who made it)
*Library Grabs/Borrowed Books
*Group Reads/BuddyReads (from any group)
*A Specific Genre (Paranormal, Historical Fiction, etc.)
*Freebies/Netgalley/ARCs
*Beautiful Covers
*GoodReads Choice Awards Nominees/Winners
*Books with other Literary Awards
*Colour Covers (pick one colour (or more than one) and read books whose covers are at least 50% of that colour)

Special Notes/ETAs:

~If you do a large amount of categories and put them all in one post, you might run out of characters; you might want to split them up into 2 or more posts.

~If you choose to do Alphabet Soup, the goal is to try and read the letters of the alphabet with 14 books using author first and last names. If you read a Sarah Dessen book, you'll have the S and D finished. If you then read Lemony Snicket, the S will not count, but the L will. (How you do this is also up to reader's discretion.)

Here is my challenge for this. Using what I was supposed to finish for last year.

Good luck to everyone!

Realistically I think that's all I could do. I really won't be able to read all these either, I've never read 60 books in a year, because reading is slow and not easy for me.

Good luck to both of you!!

That's still well done Lindy-Lane, even if you didn't reach your goal!

This thread will be archived soon, so whoever wants to update their lists please do so.

Also, is anyone interested in a similar challenge for 2016? Please let me know and I'll organize something if people are interested.

Updated message #9! Didn't manage to complete, but it was a hard target! Would love to do this again for this year!

I didn't do this for 2015, but it sounds interesting. I'd be up for trying out this challenge in 2016!

2016 challenge created! You can find it here.

Enjoy!
