2025 Book Challenge!
The 2025 book challenge is simple. Pick an item on the list. Find a book that matches. If you are reading a book and realize it fits an item, check it off! Download the list right here or from the image below to get started!
Here’s how I plan to meet the challenge!
- My favorite book is Lord of the Rings.
- For a book assigned in High Schools I will re-read 1984.
- For a book with a blue cover – I haven’t decided what book to do here. But one of the ones I read in 2025 is bound to have a blue cover.
- I’m in the middle of the Mistborn series. Finding a fantasy book should be easy.
- For a non-fiction book I’ll either read a biography (probably about a musician) or something about the comic book industry. I love learning more about both of those.
- A book you saw someone reading in a movie – This will be a surprise. I’ll just pick the next book someone reads in a movie I am watching.
- For a book of short stories I’m reading You Like it Darker by Stephen King.
- For a book with an amazing first line – Technically two lines but The Restaurant at the End of the Universe starts like this – “The story so far: in the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” How great is that?
- Most people know the end of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. It ends with the perfect line – ‘He was soon borne away by the waves and lost in darkness and distance.’
- For a book that is not on a best seller list, I’ll decide the month I read it. To make sure it’s not on a best seller list. There are plenty to choose!
- For a book with only a few characters I will read This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone.
- I reserve the right to change this one. But I’m planning to read Carrie Fisher’s memoir The Princess Diarist.
Let me know how it goes!
I hope you enjoy the challenge! Don’t forget to let me know if you read along. And how it goes if you do.
Challengingly yours,
Slick Dungeon
