am excited to take part in.
First Up is the ShelfLove Challenge.

- This year I really want to focus on reading the books I have. I will still be reading from the library on the regular, but these books really need to be out of my TBR pile like two years ago. Therefore, in an effort to read everything I own in order to get rid of what I don’t like I will be setting myself up for a challenge of 70 books from my own shelves. That means my goal level for this challenge is labeled as “51+ books: my shelves and I are going steady”
Second is the Prequel & Sequel Challenge.
This challenge is hosted by Jessi @ Novel Heartbeat and Melissa @ Writer Grrl Reads
- I have plenty of series living on my library shelves. This year I plan to finish more than one series that for years now has just been taking up space. But, I'm not going to push myself for this challenge so I'm keeping with a low goal. 10-25 points: Newbie.
Third is the New Release Challenge.
The New Release Challenge is hosted by Stormi @ Books, Movies, Reviews Oh My! and
Lexxie@ (un)Conventional Bookviews
- This is going to be a majority of the library reading that I allow myself for the year, so it'll be a good year to stay on top of the literary evolution. I'm still going fairly easy because, like I said, a vast portion of my reading is coming from MY OWN SHELVES this year. Challenge level: 1-15 books/yr: New Release Newbie
Fourth and Finally (for now) is the Ebook Reading Challenge
The Ebook Reading Challenge is hosted by Annette @ Annette's Book Spot
- I have been downloading A LOT of free ebooks on my kindle, probably for no better reason than they are free and they take up no physical space. Anyway, I don't want to bog my reader down with a bunch of junk, so I'm pledging to read 25 ebooks this year, which falls into the Megabytes category.
