Hello Everyone!

We have some exciting new updates for next year, one of them being the all-new ,The Cosy Bookish Points Challenge, starting on 01 January 2020, which will reward you just for joining in!

☆ Here are the rules & regulations: ☆

• For every vote you place on one of our Polls, you will get 2 Points.

• For every picture you share of the book you are currently reading on our Facebook Group, you will win 5 Points!

• For every picture you share of the book you are currently reading, that is a book on our Facebook Group that is already on our Bookshef, you will win 10 Points! **

• For every Theme and/or Book you recommend for the following quarter, you will win 5 Points!

• For every Book you read & complete that is already in our Bookshelf, you will win 10 Points ! **
(The point will count towards the month in which you completed the book)

☆ How does it work: ☆

Monthly Prize:

Bronze Badge = 0-50 points
Silver Badge = 50-100 points
Gold Badge = >100 Points

Every time you do one of the above, leave a comment below to let us know. A monthly tally will be in this thread and on the 1st of the following month, you will receive a PM with your hard-earned badge!

Quaterly Prize:

At the end of a Quarter, if you have 3 Gold Badges, you will win a choice of a Cosy Bookish Corner Printable Bookmark or a Phone/Tablet Screensaver (for who mainly uses e-readers!)

You are free to use your badges as you wish, show them off under your comments or display them proudly in your Badges Thread


(** Please note, this only counts if it is a book that you have started after 01 January 2020 - Re-reads do not count)

Jemma (captainjemima) | 61 comments Recommendation: Each person has a post where they can update how many of each thing they've done in each month, rather than a message per interaction. Might cut down on message clutter if this really takes off?

Just voted in a poll, and made four suggestions on the quarterly suggestions thread. :)

** Hi Everyone, just wanted to say I am having a good think about the best way of keeping both Challenges organised without any comments or threads and therefore points getting lost along the way! So, you may see some more slight amendments soon :)

These are our first Challenges so I am expecting some growing pains, but if you have any suggestions & ideas on how to get any more points, etc, please do let me know!**

Hi Jemma, Thank you again for your suggestion! I've taken it on board, so if you could please create your own thread with an update on what you have done for your Points/Badges, that would be great :)

Kelsey (kelso30) | 82 comments My phone was glitching so I didn't get a thread opened, I'll do better this month and actually start messing with it before the last two days, lol.

Well better late than never, haha! Anyway, you should have your badges in your inbox now :)

Kelsey (kelso30) | 82 comments Haha, true. And thank you!
I think I figured a way around the problem. If not I will just wrestle my computer away from the kids and use the desktop site, I typically dont have issues on there.

Yeah I know what you mean, I love Goodreads but the App and Mobile browser version are hard work!
