July Special Challenge

Hello everyone!

This time for our July Special Challenge, we are having a TBR Knockout with a twist. Here are the rules-

You need to sign up with a name that has 5 letters. It can be your real name, or a pet name. However, if you want a longer name, you can do that too. (Rules on that later)

After signing up, you need to write a book or an author’s name or surname that starts with the same letters. ‘A’, ‘An’ and ‘The’ don’t count. Books below 100 pages don’t count.

For eg, mine would be Bhavya-

B- (The) Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
H- Heartstopper: Volume One
A- Becky Albertalli- Kate in Waiting
V- V.E. Schwab- A Gathering of Shadows
Y- Adrienne Young- Namesake
A- Victoria Aveyard- Realm Breaker

And so on.

Each letter you complete gets you +50 points.

If you do a name longer than 5 letters, then you get +10 points with each additional letter you do. For eg, my name ‘Bhavya’ has 6 letters so I get +10 bonus points if I read the books for the 6th letter, along with the original 50 points for completing a book.

For completing the same name with different books each time, you’ll get a bonus of +10. This means that if you finish all 5 letters (or more) for your name, you will get +10 points.

If you finish all the letters in your name and still have time for the challenge left, you can start again and read different books with the same letters. For finishing your name more than once, you’ll get bonus +50 bonus points, excluding the 50 for completing each letter.

For eg, if I finish all the above books for my name and want to do more, I could read Blood Heir for the letter ‘B’ etc. for all the other letters. Doing the letter B will get me 50 points, and if I continue to finish all the letters in my name again, I’ll get +50 points.

The one with the most points wins.

Point System

+50 for each letter.
+10 for every additional letter.
+10 for completing all the letters in your name.
+50 for each completing your name more than once

How to log the books?

You’ll be provided an individual log after signing up. Log your books there in this format-

Book-
Author-
Page Count-
Letter Completed-

How to sign up?
1. Goodreads User ID
2. Sign up name

Any questions, direct then here.

Extremely sorry if this was confusing, but I wasn’t sure how else to explain it.

message 30: by Marie (new)

Marie | 135 comments hey, i got two questions before signing up: first, do the middle names of authors count? like for examply if i read a book by S.A. Chakraborty, can i use it for the letter A?

second, concerning the book titles, does the title have to start with the word that starts with the letter? so for example could Chain of Iron be only used for C or also for I?


message 31: by Dreamer (new)

Dreamer  before I sing up, I have 2 questions.. firstly, do re-reads count, or must every book be from my TBR? And also, can I read books in any order, or must they be on my name's letter order. For example, if my name is Grace, can I read a book that starts with R, or must I first read a book that starts with G?


message 32: by Nash (all too unwell), Nefarious Nash {on hiatus} (new)

Nash (all too unwell) (iambecomeabladee_n) | 1726 comments Mod
For the first yes it can be counted
And for the second no ...oy the first letter but the,that,A etc can be ignored :)

Hi!
No, the middle names don’t count. Only first or last name.
For the title it has to be the first one. Chain of iron counts for c but not I. Hope that’s clear. :)

Hello!
Yes, re-reads will count.
Books can be read in any order. :)

thank you! Also, I've got another question (sorry, I forgot). If I read The Da Vinci Code, which is part of Robert Langdon series, does it count for letter R? I mean, do names of the series count for the books?

No problem, no it won’t count. Only the name of the book, so this particular book will count for D and B. (As the author name starts from D as well, so one less letter in this example)
