*My bookish New Year's resolution is to become more social in the blogging world! I would love to meet more people, fangirl about series loved, and participate in more events in 2015! I am hoping these challenges are just a small step in the right direction to achieve that goal. I will possibly add more challenges and events in the days to come... (:
I haven't looked into any, "group" reading challenges yet! Now that I've seen your post, I'm considering, Dusting Off the Shelf!(:
ReplyDeleteAh - I also hope to be more social in the blogosphere. That's one thing I haven't invested as much time into as I should have!
Thanks for posting this, Morrighan!
- Cambrie @ and so the book begins
I completely agree Cambrie. I'm nowhere near as social as I'd like to be. I tend to get stressed out with classes; my profs seem to love to spring insane research papers or tests on us at the last minute. I never seem to have enough time to balance everything, but I'm going to give it a shot this year! I hope you find a challenge that fits into your reading style. There are tons of them posted throughout the bookish world right now (:
DeleteGood luck with all your goals for 2015! Looking forward to reading more of your posts. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Joy! I'm gonna head on over to your blog and check out your bookish resolutions (:
DeleteSome of these challenges look very neat! I'm not signing up for any this year but I'm trying to do the A-Z challenge one. I have all the books figured it out and I also wanna read more adult fiction and some classics.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your goals! And Happy New Year!
I haven't heard of the A-Z challenge but I am totally going to check it out. I have yet to pick out any books for these.. haha! I'm just hoping my slacker tendencies don't interfere with the ones I've already picked (:
DeleteThanks for stopping by girl. Here's to a wonderfully bookish new year.
Some great challenges! I've decided to only do the goodreads challenge for total number of books, but I do have some resolutions that you can see here: http://enchantedbyya.blogspot.com/2014/12/new-years-bookish-resolutions-2015.html
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you about finishing a series. If all of the books aren't out yet, I tend to put it down and forget about it! I try to keep track of the ones I want to read on my blog, but it doesn't always work out! I wish you the best of luck in the new year girl, and I look forward to more great reviews! (:
DeleteSo many great reading challenges! I wanna do a few, but I'm really bad at these, I slack off too much!
ReplyDeleteAll the best! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! :)
Eclectic Introspections @ Flickering Lights
Oh yea, I hear you on that one! I'm hoping my slacker tendencies don't interfere with these challenges.. haha! Even if it does, I'll still end up reading some great books that I might not have gotten to otherwise. Thanks so much for stopping by! I wish you the best of luck and bookish goodness in the new year.
DeleteHi again! I nominated you for the Sisterhood of Blogger Award! I don't know if you've already done it, but if you haven't then I would be very happy if you could! :)

Girl you are getting it in with the challenges! I seen a couple that I want to attempt to do, but I'm not quite sure yet. I have so many other things I'm trying to get out the way first, then I want to get my hands dirty with some of these reading challenges. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI hope you end up checking some of them out. I did see your resolutions and I left you a comment on them! I do hear you about not getting overwhelmed with too many goals (:
DeleteI didn't join any challenges this year, but I do like the idea you have here of doing it to be more social in the blogging world! Like you I have my challenge of 100 books this year. And the fantasy/dusting off the shelf challenges do look like good ones to me! I hope you are able to do them all ;)
ReplyDeleteYou have signed up for some great challenges! I like the reread one, but I have so many books on my TBR already. I need to try to make a dent in that. Haha
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're going to be pretty busy! :) I, too, would love to be more social in the blogging world.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I've nominated you for the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award. Check it out here.
So many great challenges this year, I'm doing a fantasy challenge as well! :) Good luck<3
