JANUARY - NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION CHALLENGE

Happy New Year, everyone! It's a new month, which means it's time for a new challenge!



GOAL: Complete as many resolutions as possible

STYLE: Individual

RULES:

1. No cheating: only log the books you've started (even if you started it in any other month) and finished [in January] entirely.
2. Have fun!

INSTRUCTIONS: Resolutions are common around New Year’s. For this challenge, you’ll be given prompts. We have 2 types of prompts: fiction and nonfiction. Each member who signs up will be given a thread where they will post their New Year’s Resolutions. These will be titled [member name]’s Journal, as resolutions are usually written in a journal/diary that is for your eyes only.

For this challenge, there will be a points system. You’ll get 1 point for each book you read, plus points for the page count of the book chosen and 2 bonus points if you’ve never read the book you chose. You will also get points depending on which type of prompt you read. Fiction prompts are worth 1 point, while non-fiction books are worth 2 points. For each genre/book type resolution section you complete, you get five points. All prompts will be given upon sign-up.

Page count point system:

0-99 pages: 0.5 points
100-199 pages: 1 point
200-299 pages: 2 points
300-399 pages: 3 points
400-499 pages: 4 points
500-599 pages: 5 points
