Hello everyone and welcome to the 2024 Randomised Reading List challenge we are sticking with the rules from last year and these are detailed below:

You will not get any points for generating a list however the first book you read and review from your list will gain you 5 points after that all books are worth 2 points except Wish List Books which give you 3 points.

When claiming points for a wish list book please link to your review.

When requesting a list you can choose the standard format which will include at least 1 wish list book or you can choose all wish lists books or no wish list books.

We have now added the books from the non English versions of the list so if you would like to include another language please specify when requesting your list we have a choice of Norwegian, German, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Portugese, Romanian, Danish and Russian. You will be allocated 1 book from your chosen language list and this will be counted as a Wish List Book.

Free Swaps

You can swap a book you have already read and reviewed for the group please add link to your review.

You can swap a book not available in a language you can read - please note if you request books from another language in your list the assumption will be you can read that language and you will not be able to swap that book.

If a book on your list becomes a group read during the year you can swap this.

Each book you read will generate you a new book. Reading a Wish List/Non English book will generate you another Wish List/Non English book.

To sign up to have a listed generated please reply to this topic. Lists will all be published...sometime during Christmas when I am not working.

Happy reading.

I noticed that the French version is missing from international lists above. Could you put me down for a French list? (I have a list of the books if the mods do not). Thanks!

Please give me a list again, though I seldom read more than one on my list!

I would like a standard list also, hoping I can get with the program this year!

Hi Jane - A wish list book is one that has not been read & reviewed in the group. They tend to be the more obscure and difficult to get hold of books.

Hi!
Could I have a standard list please?

A standard list please. Happy New Year, Book!

Hi, I’m late to the party but can I still get a randomized list for this year? I’m feeling like having an assignment might be fun!

Hi Jenna welcome to the group. Sorry for the late reply. Let me reach out to Patrick he is in charge of randomized lists.

@Jenna: new topic created. Apologies for the (Olympic) delay.

Thank you Patrick! Kristel told me you had done this :) I just put in a review for the Handmaids Tale, read so many years ago it wasn't even in goodreads yet. I'm not sure how to link? Can I swap it out? And I forgot to include a wish list book hoping to add instead, The Savage Detectives - my irl book club is about to read it!

I'm not sure what you mean. There is a review thread for The Handmaid's Tale. You're are welcome to add old reviews there if you like. Or are you just asking for a swap. Here's the link for reviews (found in 1001 Reviews alphabetical title lists). /topic/show/...

Thanks Kristel, yes I was just asking for a swap. I will do that in my own thread and will post my review in the link.

I've done the swap (look at your thread). With respect to Wish List books, they are selected from the group's Wish List, which at the moment contains books that have yet to be reviewed by anyone in the group. The definition of "Wish List book" will change next year, as we have a quickly diminishing amount (< 50) of yet-to-be-reviewed books.

Patrick, are you doing Random Lists for 2025 or are we skipping it for this year?

Yes he will Gail. He mentions this in our random thread /topic/show/...

Happy reading in 2025!
