Of course, the Goodreads challenge, as always. This year I'm hoping to read at least 50 books, but I would really love to read much more than that! I may up my goal as the year goes by!

And as of September 14th I have reached my goal! I'm gonna up it a little bit to 60 books and see how I do.

10/17/18 update: Alright, I'm at 60, pretty much, so I'm going for 75 now! Lol.

I LOVE mythology, and I am super excited to be hosting this challenge this year! "The challenge is to read as many full-length novels as you can that have a prominent mythology theme."

2015 Witches &a Witchcraft Reading Challenge

JOIN HERE!

I LOVE this challenge! Witches are my favorites supernatural creatures and I just adore magic! The challenge is to read "...Any full length book that includes a witch as a main character or includes major witchcraft elements counts. They may be fiction or non-fiction..."

My goal: Maiden: Read 6 – 10 Witchy Books

The Shattering by Karen Healey
New Girl (Anti-Heroes #1) by by Louise Bohmer & K.H. Koehler

JOIN HERE!

If you've been here for a while you know how much I LOVE the horror genre, be it in books or movies! I just love it! SO when I found this challenge I KNEW I had to join! I am SO excited! "The horror genre is subjective, but a good guideline to follow is whether a book is regularly shelved as horror on Goodreads."

My goal: Fearless Reader: 11-15 Horror Books

JOIN HERE!

"The goal is to read fairytale retellings, but if you want you can also pick other retellings. It’s up to you what you count as a fairytale." I love fairytale retellings! I'm hoping I'll get a couple of books in this year! I'm thinking Cinder by Marissa Meyer...

My goal: Prince Charming: 1 – 4 books

JOIN HERE!

I love re-reading books, as I've mentioned before! SO I thought this challenge was great! Basically... "any genre, length or format of book counts, as long as it's a re-read." No set number of books (though I'd like to read at least 5); just read as many as you'd like/can! You're supposed to make a list of books you want to re-read, but that wouldn't exactly work for me seeing as how I'm a big time mood reader especially when it comes to re-reads! So I'll be listing the books down below as I read them :)

JOIN HERE!

"The goal: To read as many prequels and sequels as you can. You set your goal at whatever number works for you. Novellas count, either prequels or sequels (i.e. #0.5, #1.5, #2.5, etc)." So this challenge is based on a point system, not on a set number of books: "1 point for each prequel or sequel novella read and reviewed, 2 points for each full-length sequel read and reviewed, 10 points for completing and reviewing a full series (doesn't require novellas), and you do not get points for the first book in a series."

My goal: 76-100 points: Professional

Reading the Paranormal - 2014 Seriously Series Reading Challenge

JOIN HERE!

For all of us fans of series that we still need to finish or get up to date with! ...A series is considered complete in one of two ways: either as finishing all the books that you own in the series or as obtaining and reading all the books that have been published in the series to date ... FYI, reading novellas and short stories from a series does count here--if you want it to!... The challenge is divided into 3 different categories which I really like! But I'm gonna start low and work my way up.

...Let’s be honest here, we all have those books we’ve received for review (whether requested or not!), but we just haven’t gotten to them yet. Or maybe we went a little crazy with the ‘request’ buttons on NetGalley or Edelweiss, and we need to catch up. That’s what this challenge is for ... to help clear up books you’ve received for review. Any format, or any length, as long as you received the book specifically for review, is allowed... This is the most perfect challenge EVER! I SO need this one!

My goal: Master: 21-30 books

BA's Off the Shelf Reading Challenge. Grab me!

"...Read books on your shelves that have gone unread for far too long. Selecting books from the year before (in this case, 2012 and before), read as many of the unread ones as you can. It’s up to you if you want to keep them or give them away afterwards, the main goal is to turn those unread books into read ones. The Main Rule: Do not include books acquired during 2013, it defeats the purpose, read those books from before 2013 started."
