2025 Reading Challenges

After taking a challenge hiatus for 2024, I am ready to participate in challenges again! I am looking forward to participating in several challenges in 2025 and hope to see you around the challenges as well 😀 Let's cheer each other on and have some fun! Please click on the banner (or link) to be taken to the host for each challenge to see all the details and sign up.

Okay, first off, this in not an official challenge per say, but Chautona Havig was chatting on her Book Tube and decided she was going to get rid of 55 books before her 55th birthday in July. I LOVED this idea, so I will be joining her. I will be getting rid of 47 books before my 47th birthday on July 19. There are no hard and fast rules, just getting rid of books (unless she sets some). I am going to be getting rid of fiction and nonfiction. Obviously, as a book nerd, books will still be coming in, and that is okay! The point is to clear off some books I know I will never read again.

 

The Mount TBR Reading Challenge is hosted by Bev over at My Reader's Block. There are specific levels you can sign up for and I committed to 48 books (Mount Ararat) from my physical (owned) TBR shelf prior to the start of 2025.

 

The VIRTUAL MOUNT TBR CHALLENGE is for those of us who have a long "wish-list" of TBRs and who would like a chance to tackle those mountains. I signed up for: Mount Munch: Read 36 books from your Virtual TBR/Wish List/Library.

Next, I will be participating in Oceana's #ReadChristianRomance Challenge - they can be read in any order.

I have to support my blogger friend, Nicole. I will be doing her 2025 Reading Challenge. Here is what it looks like:

The last one I am considering doing is Chantel's 2025 Reading Challenge

The prompts are pretty loose, for example the first one is "beauty." It can be a book with the word beauty in the title, or a Beauty and the Beast retelling, or just something you think is beautiful. So, here are the prompts:

January-beauty

February-size

March-time

April-flowers

May-favorite

June-bird

July-royalty

August-space

September-travel

October-history

November-food

December-frosty

Are you joining any challenges?!  I know I am not the only one who has bookshelves full of books that I need to read 😂 What challenges have you decided to do this year?
