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

- Terminal (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #4) by J.L. Bryan

"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 :)
- Clarity by Kim Harrington
- Forgive My Fins (Fins #1) by Tera Lynn Childs
- The Son of Sobek by Rick Riordan
- The Staff of Serapis by Rick Riordan
| 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

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

"...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."
