Better late than never, right? Hey, it's still January! It's time to take on the reading challenges of the year! These are all favorites from years before this year. I record:
Mount TBR Reading Challenge 2022 is organized by My Reader's Block
In the 48 books on my TBR shelves, I once again set my eyes on Mount Ağrı . I missed it last year, I only had 38 books on my shelves, but I want to challenge myself because the shelves are overflowing! Note that the challenge allows me to count ebooks and audiobooks, but my main goal is to remove some of the physical books I have (my TBR library is now doubling), so I only count physical books. This challenge has monthly review links.
Motivate Monthly Reading Challenge 2022 organized by Girlxoxo .
I love this challenge every year! Last year I played all twelve tracks of the month, so I'll try to play them all again in 2022! It also includes monthly review links. Reasons for 2022:
JANUARY - New to you . Ring in the New Year with something new: a new genre, a new author, a new book collection, a new book with purchase, and more.
FEBRUARY - Power of the Maiden . Highlight women! Female authors, fierce female characters, feminism, female body positivity, women in science/government, etc.
MARCH - There was a murmur about the books . Read a book in 2021 that you've seen a lot of publicity about but haven't started reading yet.
APRIL - The books are out . Read the book based on this film or television adaptation. For an added challenge, watch the show after reading the book.
MAY- Librarians meet . Read a book located in a library or bookstore; librarian, author or librarian; Or a book with the word "BOOK" in the title.
JUNE - HORROTASUNA through books . Read a book by an author who is a member of the LGBTQIA+ community or a book with LGBTQIA+ characters.

SEPTEMBER - Match for the title . Read a book with puns, puns, jokes, or clever titles with double meanings.
OCTOBER - Murder or Magic . Read a mystery novel or a book on magical realism.
NOVEMBER - Translation of books . First, read any book that is not written in your native language but has been translated later.
DECEMBER - The fire is very nice . Read a book with fire, flames, candles, smoke, or burns on the title or cover.
Return to the 2022 Classic Challenge organized by Books and Chocolate .
Another challenge that I return to every year. I usually aim for 6 classics (in 6 categories), which is fine by me, although last year I only read 4 classics. I'm already reading one, so I hope to reach my goal this year! The categories for 2022 are:
2nd century classic. Any book first published between 1900 and 1972. All books must have been published at least 50 years ago; the exception is books written by 1972 and published posthumously.
3. A classic work of an author.
4. Classic in translation. Any book published in a language other than your primary language. If you wish, you can read it translated or in the original language.
5. A classic from the author of BIPOC. Any book published by a non-white author.
6. Classic Mystery/Detective/Crime. It can be fiction or non-fiction (true crime). For example , Crime on the Orient Express, Crime and Punishment, In Cold Blood.
7. A collection of classic tales. Each volume at least six stories. A book can have one author or an anthology of several authors.
8. Pre-1800 Classics. Anything written before 1800. Epic plays and poems like “Odyssey” are allowed in this category.
9. A non-fiction classic. Travels, memoirs, and biographies are great choices for this category.
10. The longest running classic on your TBR playlist. Find the longest unread classic and finally cross it off your list!
11. Classic atmosphere wherever you want to go. It can be real or fictional: Paris, Tokyo, the Moon, Middle Earth, etc. It could be a place you've never been or a place you'd like to visit again.
12. Classic sign. Any classic book you want, from any category, as long as it's 50 years old!
