Anissa’s comments from the 2025 Reading Challenge group.

TBR Jar Challenge
Duration: January 1, 2020 - December 31, 2020

I am going to shoot for 5 books because I tend to get WAY too overzealous on challenges sometimes. I guess I can’t help myself because they all look SO fun. I will choose my books based on the list of tasks provided.

Goal: 5 ; Progress: 0/5

1. Read the book that has been on your TBR list the longest.
2. Read a book with a cover you love.
3. Read a book that helps you complete two or more other yearly or quarterly challenges.
4. Read a book that you own.
5. Read a book that is featured as a group or buddy read and was already on your TBR.

Thank IIona! :)

I also really liked Aubrey’s idea of making all the books related to one of the various types of challenges (yearly, quarterly, or monthly) so I will attempt to do the same (as much as possible).

Wow, I have been kind of lax and all over the place with my challenges this year. It seemed to have taken me FOREVER to even decide on the goal for my yearly reading challenge (10 books). I would like to at least complete my overall yearly reading challenge but will look to complete 5 books in total. This challenge seems quite helpful for finding some semblance of order. Let's see how we go!
