The Challenge Factory
TCF's 2019 Pi/Pie Challenge
Duration: January 1st, 2019 to December 31st, 2019

Progress: 19 out of 33+

My family is a family of geeks, and we're pretty proud of it. Every year in March, we celebrate Pi Day by eating some pie. Now, in order to turn it into a challenge, I thought it would be entirely too long for a monthly, but why not a yearly? I present TCF's First Celebration of Pi/Pie!

Rules:
(view spoiler)[
* Re-reads are allowed, but books must be at least 25 pages in length to count for this challenge. You CAN change your Books at any time during the challenge!
* When using titles in the Spell Out Tasks, the words A, And, An, and The do not count.
* When listing books for the Numerical Pi category, you must put the series name and book number in the series somewhere in your entry! Example: 4- Catching Irish (The Summerhaven Trio #4) by Katy Regnery-8/11/18
* Also, when listing books for the Numerical Pi category, if you get to one of the places where a zero is in Pi, the series books you read must be a prequel novella and still conform to the previous rule about listing series books! Example: 0- The Assassin and the Pirate Lord (Throne of Glass #0.1) by Sarah J. Maas-11/13/16
* In the Numerical Pi category, you CAN NOT combine 2 entries by reading 1 book! An example of this would be combining the very first 1 and 4 into 14 and reading the 14th book in a series. All books read must be numbers 0-9 in a series! (This does include all decimal numbers up to 10, to allow for novella reading, so long as the novella fits the minimum 25 pages requirement!)
* Keep your original post updated and give a shout out in the thread when you're all done! Please do not make a separate post with your finished challenge, edit your original comment! This is so I can keep accurate track of participation. You can make an announcement post like "Finished in comment #2!", so I know where to find your completed challenge to congratulate you! Duplicate posts will be deleted! (hide spoiler)]

Some Info to Keep In Mind:
(view spoiler)[
* Mark books as finished by adding the date finished next to the book listed and either striking them out using the "< s> < /s>" HTML commands (without the spaces) or by copying and pasting a checkmark: ✔ ✓
* Add a tally of completed books to your Original Post= 0/5 completed!
* Each Category has a different number of tasks in it, they are not all the same number of tasks! Plan your lists accordingly!
* Latecomers are welcome to back date the challenge to January and use books that you've already read this year to complete the challenge! (hide spoiler)]
