2015: A Challenging Year

My friend shared a new Book Challenge with me from Goodwill Librarian's Facebook page. I'm not sure where it originally came from but I really like how broad it is


Since the picture is smaller than anticipated, I typed the list out below or you can just see it here:

-A book with more than 500 pages
-A classic romance
-A book that became a movie
-A book published this year
-A book with a number in the title
-A book written by someone under 30
-A book with nonhuman characters
-A funny book
-A book by a female author
-A mystery or thriller
-A book with a one word title
-A book of short stories
-A book set in a different country
-A nonfiction book
-A popular author's first book
-A book from an author you love that you haven't read yet
-A book a friend recommended
-A Pulitzer prize winning book
-A book based on a true story
-A book at the bottom of your to-read list
-A book your mom loves
-A book that scares you
-A book more than 100 years old
-A book based entirely on it's cover
-A book you were supposed to read in school but didn't
-A memoir
-A book you can finish in a day
-A book with antonyms in the title
-A book set somewhere you've always wanted to visit
-A book that came out the year you were born
-A book with bad reviews
-A trilogy
-A book from your childhood
-A book with a love triangle
-A book set in high school
-A book with a color in the title
-A book that made you cry
-A book with magic
-A graphic novel
-A book by an author you've never read before
-A book you own but have never read
-A book that takes place in your hometown
-A book that was originally written in a different language
-A book set during Christmas
-A book written by an author with the same initials
-A play
-A banned book
-A book based on or turned into a TV show
-A book you started but never finished

There's something fun about it. Instead of long and short, it's 500 pages and read in a day. There's something about it I just like.

It totals 49 books but I'm going to add one more category to add one more voice:

-A book written by someone over 40

I think that should keep me plenty busy over the next year.
