2021 Reading Challenges

My 2021 Reading Challenges

Reading Challenges are so much fun. I love the feeling of completing one of these challenges or even surpassing it.

If you are looking for different reading challenges, you can check out The Master List of 2021 Reading Challenges over at GIRLXOXO. She has so many different ones. She has traditional bingo types, ones with prompts; you name it. Oh, and tones of genres.

If you want to sign up for one of the challenges below click the link after “Hosted by” and it will take you to the challenge page.

I have added a bunch to my list this year; let’s see what I signed up for.

My goal this year will be 104 books

Goodreads hosts an enormous reading challenge every year. I have been participating in this contest since 2011. I haven’t always hit my target, but I try. However, I did surpass my goal again in 2020, and the number of books I read is getting higher. Since I am a book blogger, it’s fantastic. I hope to read and review at least 2 books a week in 2021.

If you want to sign up, the reading challenge is open most of the year. The great thing about this reading challenge is that you can read any book that is on Goodreads. You may want to see if you can read more books in 2021. So head over to Goodreads and set your goal as soon as they have it up.

2021 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge

Hosted by: Escape with Dollycas

2021 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge

2021 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge

Host: Escape with Dollycas
Progress: 18/26 (69%)
1 January, 2021 — 3 January, 2022
Failed

69

My goal this year is to read 26 books.

The Alphabet Soup Challenge means that by December 31, 2021, your bowls must be filled with one book for each letter of the Alphabet.

Each Letter Counts As 1 Spoonful

Details

This challenge will run from January 1st, 2021, until December 31st, 2021.

You can join anytime. You do not have to post a review of the book. Books can come from any genre. You do not need to link up each spoonful.

Make a page or a post or a GoodReads shelf where you will keep track of your spoonfuls. I keep track of mine on my Challenge Page.

Crossovers to other challenges are allowed and encouraged!

It’s an alphabet challenge!!! The challenge is to read one book that has a title starting with every letter of the alphabet.

You can drop the A’s, and The’s from the book titles as shown below.

The First Main Word Needs To Be The Letter You Are Counting

Except For that pesky Q, X, AND Z titles, then the word that starts with the challenge letter can be anywhere in the title.
So there are two different ways you can set up your own A-Z Reading Challenge.

A – How I plan to do it: Make a list on your blog from A-Z. Throughout the year, as you go along, add the books you are reading to the list. Towards the end of the year, you can check and see which letters you are missing and find books to fit.

OR

B – Make a list now of 26 books, picking one for each letter of the alphabet.

For example:

A – Artistic License to Kill by Paula Darnell

B – Beauty Expos Are Murder by Libby Klein

C – Complications: A Novel by Danielle Steel

D- Drenched in Light by Lisa Wingate

Books can be read in any order and all formats – print – e-book – audio – are acceptable for this challenge!

Ready to join??

If you post your books on Social Media, please use the hashtag #AlphabetSoupChallenge

Follow Escape With Dollycas Into A Good Book as there may be special announcements made about the challenge.

There is also a very active group on Facebook where you can share your books read, and converse with others taking part in the challenge. Alphabet Soup Challenge –  You can share your accomplishments throughout the year there. Right now, they are finishing this year’s challenge, but it will switch over to the new year on January 1.

I am asking everyone to sign up using Google Forms. Sign Up Here.

2021 The Backlist Reader Challenge

Hosted by: The Bookwyrm’s Hoard

2021 The Backlist Reader Challenge

2021 The Backlist Reader Challenge

Host: The Bookwyrm's Hoard
Progress: 3/10 (30%)
1 January, 2021 — 31 December, 2021
Failed

30
  1. Embracing the Outcast by Nadine C. Keels
  2. The Diva Runs Out of Thyme by Krista Davis
  3. Lending a Paw by Laurie Cass

My goal this year will be 10 books

The Backlist Reader Challenge (#BacklistReader) encourages us to read all those older books that have been piling up on our TBR piles or lists. And by “older,” I mean books that came out before 2020 (so, in 2019 or earlier.)

The challenge runs from January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021. It ends at midnight in whatever timezone you’re in. You can still post reviews and link them up until January 5, 2022, but only for books read in 2021.

The Rules

Rule #1: To count for the challenge, books have to be published before 2020 AND already be on your TBR list or pile.

In other words, you don’t have to own the book. If it was on your want-to-read list when you signed up for the challenge, and it came out in 2019 or earlier, it counts… regardless of format (ebook, print book, audiobook) and regardless of how or where or when you acquired it. Library books totally count, as long as you had the book on your want-to-read list before you signed up for the challenge.

What does”TBR list” or “to-read” list” mean, exactly? It means whatever you use to keep track of the books you want to read. If that’s a shelf or a pile of physical books, great. If it’s the “to-read” shelf on Goodreads, also fine. If you keep a spreadsheet on your computer or a list in a notebook or a “for later” list in your library account, those work too just as long as you have something to keep track of what you want to read but haven’t read yet. (In my experience, most book-lovers have a to-read list of some sort, somewhere.)

Do rereads count? Personally, I love rereading familiar books, and in any given year, at least a third of my reading is rereads. But back when I first created this challenge, the goal was to encourage myself to read books I hadn’t ever gotten around to reading. On the other hand, there are some books on my TBR list that I read a long time ago but want to reread because I can barely remember them. So here’s the compromise I came up with: you can only count a book you have read before IF (a) you haven’t read the book in the last 10 years, and (b) you can’t remember much about it.

Rule #2: Create a goal or sign-up post on your blog

…or wherever you usually post your reviews or your thoughts about a book (e.g., Goodreads, LibraryThing, Instagram, Facebook.) Please link back to this post! Then link your sign-up post below, where you see the “Add your link” button. (Please link your actual goals/sign-up post, not your home page.)  You can set your own goal, and you can list the books you want to read this year or leave it up to your mood at the time—as long as they are already on your TBR list when you sign up! You can sign up through December 1, 2021; after that, the sign-up link will be closed.

Rule #3 (optional): Review the books you read for the challenge, and post your links on the review linky

After Jan. 1, 2021, I’ll post a page with the review linky widget and link it here; you’ll also be able to get to it from the top menu bar. You can certainly do the challenge without writing reviews, but the review links are your entries for the year-end giveaway. Reviews don’t have to be long; a few sentences is fine. If you don’t have a blog, you can post them on Goodreads or LibraryThing or even on your Facebook or Instagram. Please link to your review itself (not to your blog’s main page, your profile, or the book’s main Goodreads or LibraryThing page.) If you’re unsure how to find that link, email me, and I’ll walk you through it.

Rule #4: Before January 5, 2022, create and link a wrap-up post

Let us know how you did! I’ll create a link-up post like this one for the wrap-up posts, so you can share your achievement with others who are participating!

My goal this year is to enter the Yearning level with 60 books.

Cozy mysteries, also referred to simply as “cozies,” are a sub-genre of crime fiction mysteries in which sex and violence are downplayed or treated humorously, and the crime and detection take place in a small, socially intimate community. The crime-solver is an amateur sleuth, usually but not always a woman, who is thrust into the aftermath of the murder. The protagonist frequently has an occupation or hobby that brings appealing information to the reader.

The challenge runs from January 1, 2021, and ends December 31, 2021.

Rules

Choose the level at which you would like to participate in:

Levels – You can always go up a level, but you can’t go down.

  • Peckish – 1 – 25 Cozy Mysteries
  • Famished – 26 – 51 Cozy Mysteries
  • Yearning – 51 – 75 Cozy Mysteries
  • Starving  – 76 – 100 Cozy Mysteries

  • Voracious – 126 – 150 Cozy Mysteries
  • Overindulged – 151 – 200 Cozy Mysteries
  • Pigged Out – 201 or more Cozy Mysteries

You can Feed Your Need To Read with print, digital, or audiobooks.
