This is the last month of the 2015-2016 Yahtzee Challenge. I had a great time hosting it, I hope you all had fun playing!

Duration: January 1, 2015 - January 31, 2016

Thanks, Fran, for hosting another fun challenge!!!!!
I'm finished!!! I can't wait to start the next Yahtzee challenge!


It's a 13 month challenge, with the participant 'rolling the dice' once a month. The dice need to be rolled between the 28th of the month before and the 5th of the current challenge month. You will then have the rest of the month to complete that month's task.

Only one task can be completed each month. There will be no scorekeeping, instead, you will put the title of the book(s) and date you completed the task next to the task name. This means you have completed that task for the month and you cannot do the same task again.

Random.org Dice Roller- http://www.random.org/dice/

Participants are to roll once a month. Using random.org, be sure to set the dice roller to 5 dice for your first roll. Re-roll only the number of dice you want to throw back. Do that again for the third roll. You may be happy with your first or second roll. There is no need to roll further.

If you cannot fit your 'roll' into any remaining task that you have, there will be an alternate task to complete. The alternate task will change each month. If you need to use an alternate task, please put the word 'alternate' in an empty task space along with the date completed.

Minimum page count of 100 pages unless specified for the task. Re-reads allowed, as well as audio-books.

***Please update your original post for this challenge.***
