Theme Wars: Dragons - Signups

[Donna, Curator of Challenge Terrors]

Falkor VS Smaug

Team Challenge
September 2023

Are you ready for a war? Yes, I said war. For this challenge, I will divide you up into two teams. Each team will read books to fit a weekly Dragon theme and earn points for their team. The team with the most points at the end of the month wins this Dragon war. Sign up here with your estimated # books per week and let's see who wins this war!

Challenge rules:
*No graphic novels, poetry or cookbooks allowed.
*Follow your own time zone. If you finish the book between the theme dates in your time zone, it counts.
*You must be able to justify how your book fits the theme. Example: If the theme is cats, then your book can have a cat on the cover, a cat in the book, can be all about cats, etc. If you can justify it, then it will work. Let's keep this easy and you may be creative with your links to the themes.
Standard Rules Apply

Themes
Sept 1-7 Treasure
Sept 8-14 Mythology/Fantasy
Sept 15-21 Fire
Sept 22-30 Beast


*Theme Start & End times are based on your time zone. So each theme will end at midnight in the time zone that you live in.*
