2022 Reading Challenges

I want to get out of my reading slump and read more of my TBR books that have been piling up for the past 5+ years, so I decided to join some reading challenges! You can check them out (and join) below!

Beat the Backlist Reading Challenge

The time has come again to tackle your TBR!

The Beat the Backlist Reading Challenge is returning for its 6th year in 2022! Designed to help you tackle all the books you keep meaning to read and still haven’t, this challenge is flexible enough to work for all kinds of readers.

The guidelines are simple:

  1. The book must be published in the previous year or earlier (for the 2022 challenge, anything published in 2021 or earlier counts).
  2. You have to start and finish the book in 2022.
  3. And that’s it!

Any format, any genre. Re-reads count, and you don’t have to own the book. It’s open for the entire year so whenever you feel like jumping in, you can!

  1. On Love: Collected Works and Poems illustrated by Evan Robertson
  2. A Man & His Cat vol. 3 by Umi Sakurai
  3. A Man & His Cat vol. 4 by Umi Sakurai
