⚜️XAR the Bookwyrm (xar-the-bookwyrm) Hooray for Technology E-Reader Challenge

description

Thanks to Kay (Brigidsmomma) for the suggestion of this challenge!

The e-reader has made reading accessible for a lot of people that were previously unable to read due to failing eyesight or inability to hold the weightier hardcovers and paperbacks. It also allows people to have thousands of books, right at their fingertips, or gives them the ability to hide what they are reading (like me! Reading romances exclusively leads to some embarrassing covers being shown!).

How It Works
◈Pick a Level, then pick which task group or groups you will do. Remember, you are allowed to pick multiple groups!
All books read must be e-books, but can be on any platform (Kobo, Nook, Kindle, PC, etc)! NO E-FORMAT AUDIOBOOKS ALLOWED!!
◈There are no page minimums for the challenge!
DO NOT copy your entire original post and repost it when finished! Posts that copy your entire original post will be deleted!!

Duration: February 1st, 2021 to February 28th, 2021

Levels:
Easy: 1-4 books
Medium: 5-8 books
Hard: 9-11 books
Enthusiastic: 12-15 books
Dedicated: 16-19 books
OMG, the guys in the white coats are coming...I'm Committed: 20+ books

Tasks:
Read as many books as you can in e-book format!

Spell out the word e-reader or e-book using Title, Author Name First Letter (Either first or last name, No Middle Names!), or Series Name First Letter

Pick an author and read as many of their books as you can in e-book format.

Pick a series and read as much of it as you can in e-book format.

Congrats, Shan! However, please don't copy your original post to announce you're done, as it clutters up the thread needlessly. Instead just say something like "Finished !
