I already talked about the reading challenges I'm joining this year, but it seems I completely forgot to mention two more that I joined in my thoughts 😂 Since this is a continuation of that post, I'm gonna continue numbering from last time.
8. Goodreads Choice Awards Challenge
This one is a challenge I made to somehow encourage myself to read books that other people loved. I sometimes (aka most of the time) skip certain books because of the hype they get and wait for years till people forget about them to pick them up 😂
Idk why I'm like this, but it's the same with TV shows and music - if everyone is talking about it, I'm gonna purposely ignore it till it dies out. And THEN I'm gonna pick it up...and probably love it 😂
To sum up, I needed to find which books people generally loved and try them, so of course my mind immediately went to the Goodreads Choice Awards. Since I haven't been reading that many new releases the past 2 years, I picked 6 books from the 2024 Nominees and 6 books from the 2025 Nominees. Of course, I mainly focused on the YA categories, but I also picked some books from the Adult Sci-fi category. Here they are:
2024:
2025:
Some of them have already been on my radar and some of them I discovered while perusing the Choice Award books.
9. 2026 Discussion Challenge
Now this is one that I reluctantly "joined" in 2024 and idk what happened, I simply forgot about it 😅 This year I'll try to be more consistent with my discussion posts and actually track them with this challenge.
The level I'll be joining is the easiest one: "1-10 – Discussion Dabbler." If I manage to write even more, I'll be extremelly happy, but 10 would be amazing as well!
💬 How many challenges are you joining this year? 💬
