The 52 Book Club: 2025 Challenge discussion

WEEKLY CHECK-IN
January 15, 2023 -- Week 3

We're starting our third week of the 2023 challenge. Everyone tackles the challenge a little differently and we'd love to hear YOUR personal approach to this 52 Book Club challenge.

Some examples:
- Are you completing the challenge in order?
- Are you limiting yourself to one book a week?
- Is your goal to complete all 52 books? 26 books? All the mini-challenges too?
- Are you only reading [insert specific] authors or genres?
- Working through previous 52 Book Club challenges? Or other outside challenges?
- Planned it out exactly? Reading and filling in prompts as you go along?
- Only using books you already own?
- Are you letting yourself move books around throughout the year? Or once you match it to a prompt are you locking it in?
-Etc.

There are so many ways to mix this challenge up and make it your own. There are no wrong ways and we want to hear YOUR approach for this year!

This is my 6th year in The 52 Book Club, in previous years I've tried to only use diverse/of colour authors, and one year I did the challenge both in novels and in picture books. I don't do the challenge in order, I don't limit myself to one book a week, I'm definitely going to read 52 books plus the ones for the mini challenges, I do a little planning but I mostly just mood read and see what fits where. Once I fit a book into a prompt I don't move it around later. I'm doing a couple other Storygraph challenges, but this is my main focus.

My personal goals are just to use more books that I own.

This is my 3rd time doing this challenge. I am not completing the challenge in order. I don't limit myself to one book a week, I just read as much as I can. My goal is to complete all 52 books. I don't read specific authors or genres, I'm all over the map! I am doing two more challenges: the Flourish & Blotts Challenge, and the 12 friends/12 books challenge, but I'm going to use the same books for both challenges instead of trying to read completely separate books for each. Right now, I'm just reading what I want to read, not looking for specific books. I made a spreadsheet of all the prompts, and every time I read a book, I fill it in for every prompt it meets. Somewhere around the end of June I will start tentatively assigning books to prompts and seeing what I still need to fill, and then looking for books specifically for those prompts. That's what I did last year and it worked great. I'm going to try to read more books that I own this year, but so far that hasn't been going well! LOL

I decided to try to read the prompts in order and have read six so far. The semester had not yet started so I did not have classes to prepare for and hence went fast but I suspect I will slow down now.
Prompt 1 Churchill's Secret Messenger: A Ww2 Novel of Spies & the French Resistance by Alan Hlad
Prompt #2 The Widows of Malabar Hill by Sujata Massey
Prompt #3 The Greatest Company In The World? The Story Of Tataby Peter Casey by
Prompt #4 Hotel du Lac by Anita Brookner
Prompt #5 If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin
Prompt #6 Foster by Claire Keegan
Not sure if I will be able to do all 52 in order but I am starting this way. I may have to switch books later in case I cannot fit the prompts.
Finally I have a very ambitious goal of reading two books per prompt and making one nonfiction. I am pretty sure some of the prompts will not allow for this, though so far I have found books for these first six prompts.

This is my fourth year doing the challenge. Last year I decided to make a spreadsheet and tick the boxes of all of the categories that a book may fit. For instance, a Newbery winner may also be under 200 pages, and about siblings and one of the seven deadly sins (Jacob Have I Loved by Katherine Paterson ticks all of those boxes). When I've read 52 books I see if I've completed all of the categories. It's fun to see which book I actually end up using for each category prompt.

This is my 2nd year doing the this challenge. I don't do the challenges in order. I have a general plan, more to see what books that I own that could fit well. I have a couple of personal reading goals. First is to read at least 12 classics, I won't guarantee that they all make it into this challenge but I will add them as I read them. The second is to read more off my shelves and tbr, so I plan to only use books that were one my tbr before the announcement of the list last November, except for the published in 2023 prompt. I am also trying to read around the world (one book for every country) so I try to pick up some unusual country reads.

I am trying not to move things around, once placed in a prompt I want it to stay. Last year I moved around a lot, now I am also trying to complete an older 52 challenge so books that don't fit can go into that or a different challenge.

This is my first year doing this challenge and I’m figuring out how I want to do it as I go along.
- Are you completing the challenge in order?
No
- Are you limiting yourself to one book a week?
No
- Is your goal to complete all 52 books? 26 books? All the mini-challenges too?
I’d like to fill all 52 prompts but I’m not sure I will. There are just some categories that don’t interest me at all. I know part of the idea is to broaden what I read, but we’ll see if I actually choose to complete each prompt. Not sure about the mini-challenges.
- Are you only reading specific authors or genres?
No
- Working through previous 52 Book Club challenges? Or other outside challenges?
I am also doing the Better World Books challenge.
- Planned it out exactly? Reading and filling in prompts as you go along?
I’m reading what I want, then figuring out which prompts each book might fill.
- Only using books you already own?
So far, yes, but not necessarily.
- Are you letting yourself move books around throughout the year? Or once you match it to a prompt are you locking it in?
I am very open to moving things around. In my own separate spreadsheet, I am marking all the prompts each book meets and will finalize at the end of the year.

This is my first year with the 52 Book Club!

My only special rule is that I am not buying any books - just using my library and any books people may give me.

I created my own spreadsheet and took notes on titles from others in the Club to give me ideas on some of the books I may read to fit the prompts and I have noticed that many are classics that I have never read before so this gives me something to look forward to as well.

This is my second year doing this challenge. I was going to try to do the prompts in order, but I've already read three books that can be used for later ones. I use my own books or books on my TBR as much as possible, but some of the prompts are for genres or topics I don't really gravitate towards, so I'll have to keep an eye on what others are reading for some ideas.

I'm pretty sure this is my third time doing the challenge. Last year I completed the challenge plus all the mini-challenges, and I plan to do it again this year! No, I don't go in order, and I don't limit myself in any way (I've already completed 13 prompts!). My reading is pretty diverse, so I'm not worried about reading any specific authors or genres. I'm also doing the Popsugar challenge and ATY, and I'm totally a mood reader... no planning for me. I have a ton of holds at the library, so sometimes I just have to read whatever comes in.

This is my fourth year doing the challenge. I don’t follow the prompts in order so I can use book club selections or other reading that might pop up and will fill a prompt. I do two spreadsheets
-the prompts listed on the first column and a Book planned and Book Read with start and finish dates finish dates , format, owned or not owned and star rating
-books listed on the first column and the prompts as headers across the columns. This allows me to select which prompt I choose, make recommendations and move later if needed.

When the prompts were released, I used the Goodreads Masterlist to find unread books on my bookshelf for almost every prompt and hope to use 70% of the books from my bookshelves

Last year I completed all of the Mini-Challenges and plan on doing it again this year. I am also doing the Agatha Christie Challenge by reading 1/month in chronological order. I am also doing 2 other challenges. I was going to use separate books for all of them, but it was starting to stress me out. I decided to cross challenges, but not use the same book for multiple prompts within a challenge.

I love seeing how others work the challenge!

I am a first time participant in this challenge. I am not completing the challenge in order or limiting myself to one book a week. My goal for this challenge is to complete all 52 books and the mini challenges. I don't have it planned out completely but I do have some books I own that I have planned to read for certain prompts. I think I will move books around some even though I haven't yet. I do allow myself to buy 1 new book a month however I received some gift cards for Christmas that I will use for books too. It is not the only challenge that I am participating in but hope to use many of the same books. I am enjoying it!!!

This is my 1st year doing this challenge. It was my goal to use this challenge to read books I already owned as much as possible.

I like to be organized about my tasks so I have a Jotform list that has all the books I own and a separate sheet that has all the prompts and the book I plan to use. I will allow this to be flexible if needed. I have a column to check once the prompt has been completed.

As of now I am just picking and choosing the books I read in no particular order. That will probably adjust once I get further into the challenge.

Hi! This is my third year participating in this wonderful challenge.
I had thought about doing the prompts in order, but some of the books on my tbr would not sit by quietly waiting for me to get to them...
I don't plan to limit myself to one book a week, but I do plan to do all 52 + the mini-challenges.
It's not in my nature to limit myself to a specific author or genre. Generally, I'll read anything with words. But I've recently begun learning the graceful art of setting a book aside if it becomes...tedious or unreadable to me.
I don't really plan ahead with a book for each prompt, though I may think of titles to read for them... Sometimes that's part of the fun. I prefer to read what calls to me and figure out where to fit it later. On the other hand, some of the prompts are unique enough that when I read a book that definitely fits, I'll pencil it in. But I'm not opposed to moving it around later.
Other challenges? None of the formal ones. Wouldn't know which ones to choose, or where to find them. I have some personal goals: A Dewey challenge (one book from each of the broad dewey decimal categories), a specific list of genres and series, a decades challenge. And a percentage of the books read need to be books already in my possession at the New Year's bell. (This year, I'm trying for 50%.)

This is my first year for this challenge. I have tried to read 100 books a year in the past following specific genres, so this is a refreshing way to choose books!

Right now I'm skipping around in the prompts and planning ahead about 5 books at a time in order to get some of the books on hold at the library. I also have a few books sitting around on my TBR shelves at home that I feel more encouraged (maybe even mild pressure) to read to fit the prompts.

This is my third year doing the challenge. I decided to just read whatever book I am interested in reading, whether it is already in my physical TBR pile or if I borrow it from the library. I am listing all the prompts that each book fits in my reading journal. Some prompts I have designated (like the OB book) and some I have suggestions, but most I’ll just figure out as the year progresses. I am not limiting myself to one book a week. I already have 6 books read and am currently reading two more. I hope I will be able to do all of the mini-challenges too. Last year I didn’t quite finish all of them.

So I joined last year's challenge in October... so this year is kinda my first real 52 book challenge!
My personal goals of reading in general for this year are to read a mix of nonfiction & fiction. Read 25% of my books this year from my actual shelf. I am more drawn to getting my books from the library as well as challenge myself with more lengthy books (400+ page books ). I also want to use books that have been on my TBR if at all possible.

I know from previous reading adventures I've tried that I can't plan everything out exactly and into the strict order or I start to hate the challenge and not enjoying the reading. So my approach this time is to have books that are on my TBR list and choose what I want to read at the time (mood, season, etc) and figure out what prompt that can check off. I'm hoping i don't move too many around, but I don't feel like I will be too strict. I have a running list of books and what prompts they meet in my Notes section on my phone. So I choose from that list and go from there. So far so good.

I may try some of the mini challenges, but Idk if I will really stress myself with them... probably depends on how the challenge is going.
I'm going to try to read all 52, but there are a couple that I may not be able to read just because of interest in the prompt.

Hi I’ve done the challenge before and have over 200 books on my TBR pile and so it’s a good way to choose what to read and when! I am doing it in order for that reason alone. I read over 100 books a year and so am doing this challenge and another challenge as I will have completed this challenge by June.

This is my first year doing the challenge! So far only one book down but I’m picking up momentum. I decided to go in order but mostly because I wasn’t sure where to start… def staying open to bouncing around if the mood strikes. I’m doing all new books this year. I moved a LOT in grad school so most of my book purchases for the last 10 years have been on kindle. A goal of mine for this challenge is to read them all on physical copies :)

This is my second year doing the challenge. I am reading only non-fiction for the challenge this year. I make a plan as soon as the challenge is announced, but it's very fluid. If I find a book I want to read and it fits one of the prompts I haven't read yet, I'll move that in and the other out. Last year I finished (except for the November book) in August. I also read 61 other books by that time. So I'm attempting to complete the challenge twice. I have already read 6 books and am in the middle of the 7th. Unless I own the book I get them from the library. And I always choose audiobooks if they are available. I usually look in my wish list and choose them by what's available right now. And what my mood is, too. :)

This is my 3rd time doing this challenge. I am not completing the challenge in order. I'm trying to read at least 2 books a week. My goal is to complete 104 books this year. I don't read specific authors or genres, but I do like mysteries/detectives/spies and I try to complete 5 books that are completely unknown to me that I garner from a posting on the 52 bookclub discussions.! I am doing the Agatha Christie Challenge for the second year also. I use the books for both challenges. Currently I'm reading what I have on my TBR list, but come October, I'll get specific books to fill in the categories I haven't completed yet. This book club encourages me to read outside the lines, and I love that! Thanks y'all.

This is my 1st year doing this challenge!
My initial idea was to complete the challenge reading one book each week and each book in order, but I've already gone astray. The main goal is to complete the Challenge by reading all the 52 book that I've choose to fit the prompts.
This week I read Gone Girl (prompt 3: title starting with the letter G, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️) and Bossypants (prompt 40: written by a commedian, ⭐️⭐️+1/2).
I am also doing the Agatha Christie Challenge!

Hi! This is my first year doing the challenge. I am completing it in order of the prompts simply because I love structure (however one of my planned books is not out yet so will have to skip one and come back to it at a later date, as anxious as that will make me!).

I am doing the 52 books in 52 weeks, but as my overall reading goal for the year is 70 books, I am definitely reading other books in between what I have planned out. I have planned simply so I can try and use books I have already bought but have not yet read, or to make sure I am reading things in my "Want to Read" list. Even though I am reading books in between that may fit into certain prompts, I am purely seeing them as extra-credit reading!

As I love to read a bit of everything, I have a mixed bag of genres planned, and try to read from authors of different backgrounds where I can.

So far for the challenge I have read:
Prompt #1 - Taste: My Life through Food
Prompt #2 - Jane Eyre
Currently Reading Prompt #3 - Gallant

Kayla, just because you said you liked structure and it is your first time, be aware that there are mini challenges that come up, usually 5 to 6 a year. It is revealed at the beginning of the month and will have a theme and has 3 prompts. It totally threw me off last year. by the end of the year I was enjoying them, but the surprise of it at first was too much. They aren't mandatory, but I wanted to give you a heads up.

Thanks Anna! I did see that and tried to search what the mini challenges are - that's ok, if I can make the prompts work with the the other books I am reading in between then I will :)

This is my second year doing the challenge. I'm not doing the prompts in order, nor am I reading only one book a week, because I'm trying to fit a prompt for every book I pick from my TBR (except for a few prompts regarding books which I never even considered reading).

I plan on tackling all 52 prompts. I tend to stick to my favourite genre, so this is a good way to go out of my comfort zone.

So far I've read 4 books, and I managed to find a prompt for each of them:
The Scum Villain's Self-Saving System: Ren Zha Fanpai Zijiu Xitong (Novel) Vol. 4 (35: Book you meant to read last year)
Days of Blood & Starlight (26: Has an epilogue)
The Book Thief (28: Includes a funeral)
The Bear and the Nightingale (34: Featuring mythology)

This is my first year of trying this challenge. I have found lots of books on my bookshelves that fulfil most of the prompts and have kept them separate, I'm choosing what takes my fancy and going with that, rather than trying to do it in order. I'm not very good at challenges, because I get sidetracked, so being as flexible as I can may be more successful.
I'm a fairly slow reader, but am quite relaxed about that. Having read two longer books so far this year, I'm going for The Turn of the Screw by Henry James for the 200 pages or less prompt.

This is my second year doing the challenge - I completed 50/52 last year (read too many "off list" and left a book I didn't want to read but the only one I saw in public and the 500+ pager for too late in the year).

I don't complete the prompts in order but pre-planned out my books this year to make it easier to complete. I read books as they become available from the library or as I receive them (BOTM Club member). My goal is to complete all of them this year, and I've already swapped some in and out as I realized I didn't want to read a book a few chapters in.

Finally, I was able to cruise through four more promts:
- With Love from London by Sarah Jio (2: Featuring An Inheritance)
- Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis (34: Featuring Mythology)
- How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy by Jenny Odell (51: Doesn’t Fit Any of The Other 51 Prompts)
- The House on Mango Street by Sandra Cisneros (6: Under 200 Pages)

This is my 3rd year doing the challenge, though I'm not very active in the discussion boards. I also complete the Popsugar Challenge, and last year, I made it a goal to not overlap any books! I pre-plan my books out in spreadsheets, but am not locked in-it's a fluid document, and I may change them based on new books that come out that will fit. This year, I'm trying to plug in a lot more of my owned TBR. I have not completed mini-challenges in previous years, but may add that in if I need a bit more of a challenge! I probably spend way too much time looking at these listopias and planning my books, but it's so fun! Thanks for creating and maintaining these prompts/challenges.

This is my second year of doing the challenge and it actually looks like this year I can use only my TBR (Prompt #18 made me buy a book last year). I'm not limiting myself so if I buy a new release and it fits a prompt I will use that. I have made a large stack of the 52 I plan to read and since I'm a mood reader I'll just pick from it as my mood strikes me.
I have a personal side challenge to read a book with the month in the title each month (example: January was The Ten Thousand Doors of January)
I'm also doing two other challenges (PopSugar and SFFBC) but they have a lot of overlap and I was able to do all three plus the summer genre challenge last year.

I discovered this group in the spring or early summer of 2021 and was planning on starting fresh in 2022. However, I did a little trial and realized I was only 12-14 books away from completing the 2021 challenge based on what I had already read, so I did it. Last year I completed the 2022 challenge (except the Nov read) in March or April and LOVED it. Also, last year I read/listened to 188 books, which makes me think my goals for this year are attainable...

This year I am trying to follow the prompts in order. I have already had to rearrange and switch out titles because I get 100% of my books online through (now) Libby and have to time everything just right. I am having a blast doing this AND am creating a lovely TBR list just for books I still want to read but the timing isn't working. I plan to use those titles to fill in the prompts for the 2018 challenge. My goals are to 1) finish 2023 completely in order; 2) pause to do mini-challenges; if it doesn't make my "house of cards" collapse; 3) go back to 2018 and do those out of order, as the mood hits me, and only with books I truly WANT to read; 4) make a new goal, possibly completing all the mini-challenges from previous years or starting 2019; 5) post the title, author, and prompt with its number for every 4 books I complete as my contribution to those still looking for titles; and finally 6) not to read any book I despise - nothing under a 3-star-for-me book. As for the 2023 mini-challenges, I fully intend to extend myself as much grace as needed in terms of start/stop date due to when books are available. This means I might not finish a Feb challenge until March or whatever.

As for personal reading goals outside of these challenges, I try to always include a mix of fiction and nonfiction, "junk food" books and brainy books, classics and contemporary, international and U.S. authors, BIPOC and LGBTQA+ authors/characters, and deep dives into difficult and controversial subjects like immigration, healthcare, voting rights, etc. My LIFETIME goal is to use my love of reading to constantly grow my understanding, respect, and love for the other 7.888 billion people currently living on this itty bitty planet with me.

This is my second time in this challenge. Last year I finished the challenge twice. This year I'm planning to finish it twice, again. I read unordered. I read as much as possible books in a week. I read different genres and authors. I try to read books owned by me but I bought some for the challenge. I prepared an Excel sheet for the challenge as I did last year. I finished 11 books for this year's challenge up to now.

This is my first year doing the challenge and I'm not sure how it will go since I am already starting out behind! :P I joined the end of last year but forgot about it until today. My goal is to complete all 52 prompts, I am not limiting myself to reading in order, or one book a week as I often have more than one book going. I will not lock in a title to a specific prompt until I finish the book, I may plan a little but will be flexible.

I am not completing the challenge in order. I am tackling the most difficult prompts first (i.e. Nordic Noir which I am not a fan of). I am not limiting myself since some books will take longer than a week and others less. I hope to read 52 books that fit the prompts and 50 more on top of those (mostly cozy murder mysteries). I am planning on working on the mini challenges as they become available. I am mixing up authors and genres. I have such a large pile of books to tackle this year. I want to get that pile down so I can pass the books on to others and read down what is on my very full Kindle. I might move books around as needed but I shouldn't have to.

this is my first year and I'm really excited, I want to get back into reading, I don't have a plan for how I'm going to complete in if I'll go in order or randomly, and definitely won't limit myself to 1 book a week

This is my first year doing this challenge. I'm not a goal oriented person, so that is my first challenge. I have had fun searching out books for the prompts which I keep track of in an Excel spreadsheet. I'm trying to use books that are on my TBR list when possible. I was surprised how many books I want read work for the prompts!

I'm not reading in any particular order. So far I have completed 6 books and am working on 2 more (I read a book and listen to a different book at the same time. The only prompt I'm not planning to do is 48 A Book by Octavia Butler. I started Wild Seed but I marked it DNF. The writing itself was beautiful, but the subject matter did not interest me. At least I tried it!

This is my first year with this challenge. So far, I’ve completed three prompts, and this week I’m reading Kindred for the Olivia Butler prompt.

I am not completing in order and am just reading books and then checking the prompts to see what fits. There are a few prompts I probably wont complete again, but that's ok! I am making progress already - 15 prompts done!

First year doing the challenge and not going in order. This week I’m reading A Gentleman in Moscow for the city or country in the title prompt. Hoping to do some of the mini challenges as well - they sound fun.

I don't do the list in order. I start off using books I'm already reading for other things that happen to count so I can combine this with other GR things I'm doing or what I feel like reading. If the year is drawing to a close or I'm nearly finished, then I'll start looking for the tough ones. As for Octavia Butler, I'm waiting to see if she comes up for one of my challenges, but otherwise I know which one I plan to read.

Mini-challenges. It depends on which one. If I have to watch the film in the same quarter than I read the book for the book/film one, I might not do it--if I can read a book for something I've already seen, then I may. I don't usually watch film adaptations, although some are quite good. If it wasn't supposed to be a book under 200 pages, I'd have already one one where I did both this month!

By Jan 15 I'd finished my 5th book for this (it goes quickly at the beginning of the year when I can usually use things I'm already reading) which was The Lager Queen of Minnesota for a book featuring siblings, although it can work for more than one.

This is my first year joining this challenge. I don't read in order, just plug things in as I go. I like the first mini-challenge already, so will probably give that a try.

This my first year doing a reading challenge(and I am gready-I do another two😂).By now I read 8 books and they fit in all 3 challenges at diverse prompts.I don’t read in order,I have a lot of books I want to read and I’ll see after where they fit,in one or more challenges.I did a little planning before started but the more I read the comments on fb and here the more I change it.

This is my second year for the challenge. I am not doing it in any particular order, genre or author. I plan to complete the 52 prompts and all minichallenges. I also plan to read more books for the Agatha Christie Challenge.
I do a mix of planning and reading what I find. I will use more library & Kindle Unlimited books than books I own, although I do buy some and reread favorites. I am working on my seventh prompt and eleventh book.

This is my second year doing the challenge. I have added most of the prompt books (sometimes 2 or three per prompt) to a separate shelf along with a few books that I really want to read because I have a group that picks 3 books a month for me. When I finish those... I just pick one and keep going. So random and I am really liking it.

This year I have only finished 2 books. The Help #37 and A Game of Thrones #43 and I am almost done with One of Us Is Lying #28. I may change the prompt numbers depending on what is picked for me next month.

Made solid progress on prompt 18- about 60% complete with For Whom the Bell Tolls

This is my first year doing the challenge. I’m not going in any order, but the first part of the year I’m reading books from my Want To Read list that fit a specific prompt. For example “Christmas on Tradd Street” was a book that I wanted to read in 2022.

Hello fellow readers, I'm still playing catch up with these posts. I do apologize.
This is my 2nd year with this challenge and I'm very excited. My goal is to finish all 52 prompts and really pushing myself to also meet my GoodReads Reading Challenge of 70 books in 2023. So, with this I will also be working toward the Ultimate PopSugar Reading Challenge and two of the GoodReads Reading Challenges: A to Z: Locations and I-SPY Challenge. I came close last year to completing this challenge but fell short by a few prompts. This year I'm trying to read books that will work on the other challenges I'm working on. And, because I get most of my books from thrift stores (I have a problem...LOL) I do have most of the books I need for the year.
I wish you all luck with your personal goals!!

Happy Reading,
Lisa

This is my first year really participating in the challenge. I have looked at list from previous years but never really participated. So this year, I'm giving it a go. I'm not really limiting my books. I haven't been doing much reading over the past few years, so I'm getting back into the flow of it. I plan to read the books I want to read. I will periodically look at the list and see where I can fill some books in. I'm trying to stick to the books on my "Want to Read" list, but that isn't really going too well. So far I've completed about 20 books towards the challenge. And I actually just realized there were mini challenges so I'm gonna be taking a look at those here shortly lol

This is my first year doing this challenge. I planned out my TBR for all 52 prompts, but I don't think I will get to all of them. I'm not reading the books in order.

this is my first year, and I started a little late . i WILL get to all 52 prompts, not in order and not one per week. I had already read 10 books when I found the challenge and inserted them into matching prompts I found on a spreadsheet someone posted. Some of the prompts i have planned based on books I own that will fit the prompts, and some I will choose as I finish a book and decode where it fits. I wasn't planning to move any once I chose a prompt, but i did move one so IDK if I will stick to that.

I have seen the posts about mini challenges but am unsure what they are--i guess they are separate from the main challenge but themed? I would do one if it's a theme I like
