Roundup: 2020 Reading Challenges

January 21, 2020 by Marian Sayer

It’s the beginning of the year (for a little while longer at least) and it’s great fun to start a yearly challenge if that’s your kind of thing.

I am always specifically interested in what types of reading challenges people make, and some have been creating them for several years, which makes it fun to see how they’ll change it up year to year. So I’ve gathered these prompts and challenges for your reference. You can participate if you want, peruse the prompts, or just look at what others are up to in their reading lives!

Whatever you do with this list or with your reading life this year I do hope you’ll push yourself to read something different by someone with a different perspective than your own. In this world that can be overwhelmingly challenging and hurtful, it’s important to remind ourselves what brings us together as people. Reading outside your own experience is an important way to gain empathy and help foster and grow your bond to other people.

Have fun! Read all the things! And give notice to what you consume. <3

2020 Reading Challenges:

  • Book Riot’s Read Harder Challenge

  • Modern Mrs. Darcy’s Reading Challenge

  • PopSugar

  • Reading Glasses

  • Reading Women Podcast Challenge

  • Romanceopoly - this looks like a fun thing if you’re new to romance or want to get more into it - it’s also one of the most unique challenge formats I’ve seen

Here’s a master list of all the internet’s challenges in one place, from which I’ve picked my favorites

Additionally cool, but not a reading challenge, is this awesome reading tracker that you can print and color in to indicate what you’re read! It’s pretty.

Enjoy!
