Here's a summary of the challenge that I stole from Team Bulbasaur lolFor this challenge, we are hoping to help you make a good start to your New Years Resolutions! You may read books of your own choice, but if you would like to earn some bonus points, you can use your books to spell out 'Happy New Year' ☺
To spell out 'Happy New Year' you must do the following -
* Read your book, and write your review.
* You may then choose one letter from your book to count towards 'Happy New Year'.
* For this challenge, you may choose any letter from your book's title, series name, author name, and you can even use the word 'by', as in 'Legend (Legend #1) by Marie Lu', could be used for 'Y' (so basically any book can be used for 'Y')
* You may also choose to use a different edition of a book, with a different title in order to use a different letter, so again, for Legend (Legend #1) by Marie Lu, you could choose to use this edition - Fallender Himmel to count for 'H'. (Titles must be made up of English letters.)
So:
- 1 letter per book.
- You may use any letter from your chosen book's title, series name, author name, 'by', or title of an alternate edition.
- Alternate titles must be made up of English letters, although we will accept titles with accents over words such as á, é, í, ó, ú.
- '&' may be used as 'and'.
- Numbers in titles can be used, but are spelled out, so '1001' would be 'one zero zero one', '20' would be 'two zero'.
- You can only claim letters which appear in 'Happy New Year', so H, A, P, Y, N, E, W, R.
- You can only claim 1 letter per book, so if you use your book to claim the letter P, that will only fill in 1 P on your team's board, not both of them.
- For this challenge you may use words which occur after punctuation in a title, including after a colon ':'
- You may also use author's names, or the names of any editors, translators, narrators or illustrators.
- Bonus points will be awarded each time a letter is claimed.
- Letters can be claimed in any order.
- Bonus points will be awarded each time 'Happy New Year' is completed. - Please note these bonus points are added to team totals only.

What’s everyone’s first book of the challenge? I will be at my boyfriends house the first two days of the year but I am bringing a book!
I'll probably start with an audio....
Are we going to try to complete one word at a time? How are we going to be keeping organized?
I’ll probably just post whatever letters are needed since the last post if that makes sense.
Gotcha! Just need Jennifer now :) I'm so excited to start!
checking in! Sorry I'm late to the party, we've had a few days without power.I have no idea yet what I'm reading in January, but I'll do my best to get what we need.
No power is rough! Hope everything is good now!

I'll probably read it in the next 2 days sorry. I'm too excited to wait lol.
Lol go ahead, enjoy it, I'd be the same way if I didn't have so many others to get to :)
Okay y’all how many more letters do we need to complete the saying for the first time? Trying to decide which book to read next so we can get this bonus!
