Autumn - It's time for Mini Book Bingo
The Rules:
#1. Read a minimum of two (2) rows - either across or down but not diagonal (a total of ten (10) squares) - therefore 10 books!
#2. Where the squares overlap (if they do) you must read that square twice.
#3. Choose your rows; then list (and link) your books in this challenge thread.
#4. At least one Aussie author per row - Two rows minimum = Two Aussie authors. Three rows = three Aussie authors. Please make sure all Aussie authors are clearly marked in your lists :)
Easy: 2 rows - 2 AAs = 10 books
Medium: 3 rows - 3 AAs = 15 books
Hard: 5 rows - 5 AAs = 25 books
Make sure you check out the challenge guidelines here
For example: I might say I want to read #1 across & #4 down - therefore the square which says "Aussie author" would have two (2) from that category:)
Settle back and enjoy another season of reading fun!
