Having cut it really close in 2021 with my two challenges (Popsugar and ATY), I've decided to allow a few more double dips; however, I'll try to find an individual alternative whenever possible. Some prompts overlap, though, and have been hard for me to fill in the first place. But we'll see how that goes as the last month of 2021 progresses.Categories subject to change, and as usual, I'm trying to use my existing TBR to the greatest possible extent.
Update (November): I've updated a few categories with "Plan B" books (crossovers from the ATY challenge) because I'm worried I may not manage to finish both challenges with all the originally planned books. I will still try to read the Plan A book if I have time at the end of the year.
