Those of you who have been reading completely booked for a few years probably notice I namedrop the Book Riot reading challenge quite often. I love doing that fun little challenge. It has expanded my range of genres and writers, it’s inclusive, and it’s just fun. My local library also does a book bingo, and dumb little games like that always appeal to me, so I thought, why not do my own?

Inspired by Book Riot, where you get a certain percentage off at a cute bookish shop when you do the completely booked reading challenge, you’ll receive a gift from me in the mail!

Here’s a link to a downloadable PDF if you’re into that kind of thing.

Here’s a link to a spreadsheet tracker if you’re into that kind of thing. I recommend making a copy and saving it as your own.

PLEASE join me via the Storygraph app if you’re on Storygraph, which you should be.
