2025 October Pick-It-For-Me Challenge

What is the Pick-It-For-Me Challenge?

The Pick-It-For-Me Challenge (PIFM) is a reading challenge where each participant gives and receives book recommendations based on a given set of rules. The assignment method and book selection rules change each month so it’s always new and always different.

The idea of the PIFM challenge is that you will get new-to-you books and authors selected for you as well as a push to read some books that have been lingering on your shelves. You may not be interested in the new books recommended, which is why you also get a minimum of four books from your shelf.

You only have to read ONE book to complete this challenge!

After signups are closed, your names and any extra info will go into the super secret PIFM randomizer and it will select someone for you to recommend books to and someone to give you recommendations. This list will be posted along with any specific picking rules for the month.

In order to participate you need to either HAVE YOUR PROFILE SET TO PUBLIC (preferable), or friend the person giving you recommendations. PLEASE NOTE: If you choose to keep your profile private, it is your responsibility to send a friend request to the person picking for you as soon as possible after the matchups are posted. Whether your profile is private or not, it is also very important that your profile be set to receive Private Messages (PMs) in case anyone needs to reach out to you (mods, organizer etc.)

Everything gets done in this thread so be sure to come back often!!!

REPICKS
You can ask for repicks if:
✱ The books picked for you are not yet released
✱ If you have already read the chosen book(s) and they are on your ‘read’ shelf
✱ If you did not receive four picks from your ‘to-read’ shelf, with at least one from your preferred shelf

You may NOT ask for repicks because:
✱ A book is not available at your library
✱ A genre or author you don’t enjoy was chosen

INFORMATION NEEDED TO SIGN UP
✱✱Are you Team Apple or Team Pumpkin?✱✱

✱✱ If you have a preferred shelf, please list it along with your pick! ✱✱

IMPORTANT DATES
Sign ups will remain open until September 24 (~5 pm US CDT)

You’ll have until September 29 (~12 pm US CDT) to make your recommendations.

Please do not start reading your book(s) until the first of the month. You then have the entire month to read your pick(s) and give some feedback.

If you’re new please read the PIFM Guidelines and FAQ . If you have any questions that are not addressed there, please feel free to ask!

✱✱Please note that late sign ups will be included at the host’s discretion and no one will be included after re-picks are assigned!✱✱

TIPS TO MAKE THE CHALLENGE ENJOYABLE FOR EVERYONE!

PICKEES
✱ To help your picker understand the type of books you like or are currently reading, please make sure your ‘read’ shelf is up to date. You can create shelves for books you DNFed (Did Not Finish) or authors that don’t work for you as well as favorite books and authors. In addition, you might consider updating your profile. You can include info about your favorite books, authors, genres, themes or tropes (or themes/tropes you dislike – i.e., secret baby).
✱ Please do not specify likes/dislikes in the sign-up thread. This information will not be included in the pairings and your pickee may not see your message and does not need to rely on that information when making picks.

PICKERS
✱ Please remember this is primarily a romance readers group. Thus, most, if not all, of your picks should be romance. There are various sub genres within the romance category - Contemporary, Historical, Paranormal, Romantic Suspense, Erotica, M/M, Urban Fantasy. If your pickee reads a wide variety, you could add a non-romance as a choice.
✱ You will be using 8 picking rules to select books for you pickee. Choose at least 4 new titles for your pickee. These can be brand new to them (not found on any of their shelves) or a book found on their shelves if they've never read any of the author’s work previously. The remaining 4 titles should come from your pickee’s tbr, with a minimum of one from their preferred shelves if provided. Be sure to pick at least one book for each picking rule, but please limit your picks to no more than two books per rule as sometimes having too many options is worse than too few.
✱ Please remember when you are giving new recommendations, you are not limited to titles that you have read. You can choose books that are new releases, on your tbr, or titles you looked up on Goodreads or Amazon that you think your pickee would enjoy.

A Few Hints to Help with Book Selection
✱Check the book’s publishing date. Select “date pub” from the checkbox selections and save.
✱ Check pickee’s personalized shelves, especially their exclusive shelves. A personalized shelf is one the member has created. (e.g., ‘to read next,’ ‘favorites,’ ‘didn’t like’)
✱ Make sure the books you choose are not on their ‘read’ shelf. Just because it isn’t rated doesn’t mean it wasn’t read.
✱ Look at your pickee’s ‘read’ shelf and see what genres they have recently read or read the most. Reviewing their ‘read’ shelf might help you in choosing something they are interested in reading right now.
✱ If your pickee reads lots of books in a genre you are not familiar with (erotic romance, GLBT, YA, etc.), contact the Mods or the month’s organizer for guidance.
✱ Include a variety of books (e.g., shorter page count, new addition to their ‘to-read’ shelf, an older book on their ‘to-read’ shelf). This variety gives your pickee options when choosing the book or books they will be reading this month. Use the sort feature within their shelves to determine the date a book was added, published or read; page numbers, ratings, etc.

If you want to volunteer to make repicks:
✱ We love that you want to help out, but please remember those who need picks have been waiting for a long time already. Please only volunteer if you are able to make the repicks within a few hours of the deadline. Thank you!

Picking Rules
Fall is often thought of as pumpkin time…but I’m a much bigger fan of all the applely treats this time of year brings! August through November is typical apple harvest season in my neck of the woods. Here are some popular apple varieties and apple treats…as well as a pumpkin treat or two…to guide your October reading!

🍎Gala/Honeycrisp/Fuji🍎 – these apple varieties are described as sweet, crisp, and juicy and are eaten raw or used for cooking/baking.
recommend a book…
✔️ published in August or September
✔️ whose main character(s) is considered sweet (your interpretation)
✔️ you feel is juicy (your interpretation)

🍎McIntosh/Pink Lady/Granny Smith🍎 – these tart apple types are best used for cooking/baking
recommend a book…
✔️ published in October or November
✔️ whose main character(s) is considered tart (your interpretation)
✔️ with green, pink, or red on the cover

🍎Apple Cider Doughnuts🍎 – a fall staple, these yummy doughnuts are made from fresh apple cider and rolled in cinnamon sugar
recommend a book…
✔️ set in the food industry or whose main character(s) work in the food industry
✔️ with a sweet treat(s) or drink(s) on the cover

recommend a book…

🍎Apple Cake/Crisp/Crumble🍎 – these yummy desserts are comforting classics that include toppings such as streusel or a crunchy mix of oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter
recommend a book…

✔️whose title or author’s name begins with ‘A’ or ‘C’

🎃Pumpkin Pie🎃 – another fall staple, pumpkin pie is often served with whipped cream
recommend a book…
✔️ with an orange or white cover
✔️ set on a farm (bonus points for a pumpkin farm! 😉)
✔️ with something fluffy (like whipped cream) on the cover

🎃Pumpkin Cake🎃 – can be prepared in many ways, including a decadent layer cake, a simple bundt cake, or a coffee-type cake with a streusel crumb topping
recommend a book…
