WELCOME TO THE CHILL OUT AND READ CHALLENGE!!



TIME LIMIT : 4 months from when you start

You can't read the same book for more than TWO clues.

Two things about this challenge:

Firstly, this reading challenge is a points-based reading challenge, i.e. - participants will earn points on reading books and, this challenge will also have a winner! The one who earns the most points, will be the winner of the challenge!

Secondly, this is a regular challenge. That is, after the end date, it will be started again with changed clues and new participation.

Important!:

-I've written the points beside each clue in brackets. As and when you complete each clue, you update them in your post and add up your points and post them in the same post. At the bottom of each post, there should be something like this : "My points = '....' "

-It is not compulsory to complete all clues, just see that you get as many points as possible.

-Update all the books you read in one post itself, by using the 'edit' option to edit your post.

-When you update your books do mention the correct clue number of the clue for which you read the book so that it will be easy for you to add up your points and for me to check them later.

-Once you update the books you read, and once you have updated your points, I will update your current progress in the Participation Wall which is the third post in this thread.

The Participation Wall is a common post which will contain the points of all the participants.

-If, by any chance, you update your points and I haven't updated them in the participation wall, bring it to my notice as soon as possible!

That's all! Clues are mentioned in the next post:) All suggestions, queries and updates to be made in this thread itself.
