Ramla Zareen Ahmad | 584 comments Hi all,
I thought it might be fun to do a READ YOUR NAME CHALLENGE together :-)

In this challenge you have to read books whose titles start with each letter of your name.

It can be your real name or your current Goodreads username.

Before I go further, I should mention there's already a similar challenge in this folder though it appears to be only for the year 2013:

Read your name 2013

Anyway, I liked this idea so much I decided to revive the challenge with a few additions :-)

First of all, there will be two challenge levels:

Level 1 = Read your first name
Level 2 = Read your full name

You can choose to do either one of them.

Also, you can start the challenge whenever you like but there will be a deadline. From the date you initiate the challenge, you will have exactly one year to complete it.

Once the year is up, you would have to change the status from "ongoing" to "complete" or "incomplete"—whatever the case might be—and end the challenge.

Of course, if you complete the challenge before the one-year deadline then you can change the status and end the challenge on that date only.

If you decide to give up on the challenge before the one-year deadline, you can switch the status from "ongoing" to "incomplete" and end the challenge on that date only.

Once you've ended the challenge, you can do it again in a new template with a new start date and a new challenge number.

However, for every challenge you do, the books must be those you've never read before. No rereads allowed :-)

If you want you can read the same book as another participant if both of your names contain the same letter.

If you have trouble finding a book starting with a particular letter, you can ask the other members for recommendations.

Interested in participating? If yes then copy the blank template below, paste it into a new comment, and start your challenge!
