I’m all about reading challenges. I find they add to my yearly reading goals. While exploring some blogs to find some new challenges for 2017, I found these two that I think you all might enjoy.
Rules
- The Challenge runs from January 1 – December 31, 2017 (although you can sign up any time).
- Anything inspired by the author counts (film adaptations, spin-offs and of course the originals)
- Overlaps with other challenges are fine.
- You do not need a blog to participate.
- I will also have a monthly post to link to all reviews.
Levels
- Austen Adventurer — read/watch 3 items
- Austen Aficionado — read/watch 6 items
- Austen Addict — read/watch 12 items
