This topic has been frozen by the moderator. No new comments can be posted.
The time period has been divided into 11 two-year intervals. Once you have claimed points for an interval, you cannot claim points for it again. The intervals are as follows:
1919-1920
1921-1922
1923-1924
1925-1926
1927-1928
1929-1930
1931-1932
1933-1934
1935-1936
1937-1938
1939-1940
A Constant Traveler will start at either the beginning or the end of the time periods and complete the challenge sequentially, either forward or backward. Only one time period may be skipped. This reader will receive 15 bonus points for every book completed after the first book (i.e., books 2-10). At the end of the reader's travels, he/she will receive a 150-point "Well-Traveled" bonus if ten time periods have been completed.
A Time Leaper will start at any time period he/she chooses. This reader will receive 15 bonus points for every book completed after the fifth book (i.e., books 6-10). At the end of the reader's travels, he/she will receive a 100-point "Sightseer" bonus if ten time periods have been completed.
A few notes:
I. You cannot claim regular style points for any book you read for Between the Wars (nor do the BtW tasks count as combo style points for Reading with Style's 10 and 20 point tasks).
II. All books read for this sub-challenge must be at least 100 pages, based on the most popular English-language print edition.
III. Please be aware that cookbooks, illustrated guides, and graphic novels are not allowed for the sub-challenge. Also, books designated as "YA", "Assignment", or "Juv" by the Brooklyn Public Library with a Lexile score less than 800 are not allowed.
IV. You can only complete BtW once.
