I love CEREAL and SERIALS, so I'm going to give this challenge a try! I'll be back to fill in my books.

One question I didn't see in the instructions: are there page minimums for the books?

LaurLa, I'm so glad you like them. I have fun putting them together. We typically like for all books to be at least 200pgs, unless otherwise noted. Good luck and happy reading! :)

Steph wrote: "LaurLa, I'm so glad you like them. I have fun putting them together. We typically like for all books to be at least 200pgs, unless otherwise noted. Good luck and happy reading! :)"

Yikes! That's long(ish)... I'll have to re-think a few books but that's what makes it a challenge, I guess!

Shorter books, novellas and such are allowed, as long as it's not the majority. Don't be scared off - there's no page number check on these. We only ever do that when specifically noted in rules (i.e. some challenges and all bingo games).

Last year (2024), I found that I am a "Reading Challenge Junkie", so I'm going to continue the trend this year and get my reading challenge fix. Tbh, with my "oh shiny" syndrome, I don't think this one will be that hard to get #1 of series read lol! 😁
