2018 Yearly Challenges - Wrap-Up Post

I've decided it's much easier to do one wrap up post for the three yearly challenges I host. I hope this works okay for everyone.

I'm posting the links to those challenges below. If you completed the challenge (or even if you didn't) and you post a wrap-up, please link up in the original linky on the challenge sign up post. When you put your name/blog name, just add "wrap-up." Like so: truebookaddict/wrap-up

Here are the links to the 2018 challenges:

My yearly challenge stats for these three challenges:

While I didn't do so hot with the Read Your (Book) Shelf Challenge or the Yearly 13 Ways challenge, I kind of kicked butt with the Book To Movie Challenge.

I only managed to read four (well, really three) for the Read Your Shelf Challenge, as follows:

(books without reviews are linked to my Goodreads challenge page)

Don't Look Back by Karen Fossum (Did not review)

Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter by Tom Franklin (Did not review)

Rabbit, Run by John Updike (DNF - I tried. I really did. Read all about it here)

The Treatment by Mo Hayder (Did not review)

I finished two for the yearly 13 Ways challenge, which actually qualifies me for completing the Novice level. lol

I read...

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (Banned Books Week write-up)

Behind the Scenes at the Museum by Kate Atkinson (did not review)

As I said, I read quite a few for the Book To Movie Challenge. I'm pretty sure I met the criteria for at least one of the levels.

I read...

The Ritual by Adam Nevill

Howard's End by E. M. Forster

The Treatment by Mo Hayder

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn

The Terror by Dan Simmons

Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury

The Mistletoe Promise by Richard Paul Evans

Bird Box by Josh Malerman

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

2019 13 Ways of Looking at The Lifetime Reading Plan Reading Challenge! #13WLRP


We're back for year three! I created the perpetual reading challenge, 13 Ways of Looking at The Lifetime Reading Plan back in September 2017 (read all the details and sign-up here), and I promised to offer a yearly challenge to assist us in meeting our reading goals and staying accountable with the perpetual challenge.

Details...

1. Be sure to sign up for the 13WLRP perpetual challenge.

I will be hosting these year long challenges annually so you will be able to mark a lot of books off your lists.

2. Pick a reading level.

Decide how many books from the lists you want to read in 2019.

13Ways Challenge Novice: 1 to 3 books
13Ways Challenge Eager Reader : 4 to 8 books
13Ways Challenge Buff: 9 to 13 books
13Ways Challenge Devotee: 14 to 18
13Ways Challenge Diehard Reader: More than 19

3. Grab the challenge button and write a post.

You can write the post on your blog, website, Facebook or Google+ or any other social media.

Please show your support and help spread the word by including the challenge button in your posts. You can also add the button in your sidebar. Thanks!

4. Register for this challenge in the Linky below.

Fill out the linky by doing the following:
Link title: Name and blog title (e.g. Michelle @ True Book Addict)
URL: Link to your Challenge Post, not your blog
If you ever have any difficulties using the form, or any other questions, don’t hesitate to email me. There's a contact me button in the sidebar.

5. Each time you read a book (and review, if you review) you can add your review to the 13 Ways Challenge review page.

Add your review on the 13 Ways Challenge review page and cross another book off your list for this challenge! Well done!

When sharing your reviews or discussing this challenge on Twitter, use the hashtag #13WLRP

6. Write a wrap-up post

I'll write up a wrap-up post at the end of 2019 and there will be a linky to link your wrap-up posts. If you finish before the end of the year, you can share your wrap-up link in the comments below.
