Let’s talk bookish – Reading challenges!

Posted on

Let’s talk bookish is a weekly meme, created and hosted by J.R. @Eternity Books, here different topics will be discussed.

This weeks topic is ‘What are your thoughts regarding reading challenges?’

I’m a huge fan of read-a-thon’s! With as main reason the reading challenges! So basically I love them!

It makes you read books you might not have picked up at that time, just because they fit a certain challenges! Of course there are some challenges that just don’t fit with you, but then I always try not to stress too much about them!

I like that reading challenges sometimes push you to read just a little bit more! Like with for example the Magical readathon, were reading one more book can give you a higher grade!

So as I said I love them! But I also think you shouldn’t let challenges stress you out! I heard that some people get stressed about the GoodReads reading challenges. I really don’t think you should, since you are reading  for your enjoyment, not because you have to!

I don’t have too much to say about this topic haha! Personally I love reading challenges, especially because I do not mind too much if I do not reach them. And I definitely think you should not make them stress you out!

What do you think about reading challenges?

  1. I love reading challenges! I usually do a few each year. My one issue is I get so caught up in wanting to join them that I…er…sometimes over commit LOL

    1. I know that feeling of overcommiting haha! But as long as we’re having fun!

  2. I really enjoy them, but I have to make sure I don’t get too hard on myself if I don’t do well.

  4. I love reading challenges, especially the themed ones! But they do stressed me out, especially if they are a liiitle bit complicated with teams, prompts, and choose-your-own path kind of challenges. I’m not shading anyone as I actually think those are a really fun ideas, but it really stressed me out I can do themed challenges anytime, but for those with harder prompts and more extra designs, i usually join when life is less hectic, like during the long holidays of semester breaks and year end.

    1. Yeah with teams I also get a bit stressed out! I don’t really care if I fail, but with a team I feel like I’m letting people down haha!
      Yes I especially like readathon during summer break! Good reason to go to the water with s book haha!
