3) You can use any random generator on the internet to choose prompts or subjects. Some examples are: The TBR machine, Color picker, Wikipedia, random word generator, or shuffle your playlist and read books that have to do with those songs.

Write all your selected book titles or tasks on slips of paper, throw them in a jar, and shake! (Or, if you like, use the digital equivalent) Just let us know how many books you will be reading for this challenge.

We love how creative you all are, and would love to see the pictures of your jars! Happy Reading!

How to Participate:

1. Post here telling the challenge leader how many books you plan to read.
You can choose your books for the challenge at the beginning, or add them as you go. You can join a challenge at any time during the year and may also change your goal whenever needed.

2. When you finish a book for the challenge, post it here to let the challenge leader know.
Please be sure to post the total number of books you have completed and the number of your original message every time you post an update. We use the number of the original message to identify you, as there can be many members with the same name. The challenge leader will not look at this post to track your progress.

Example:
Update to message 32: 2/25 books read!

For more information about how challenges work, check out this thread or ask your challenge leader.

P.S. Please do not delete posts! It makes updating very confusing for the Moderators! If you decide to leave the challenge, please just let us know. You can edit your original post to say {deleted}. Thank you!
