Do I have to do the challenges in order?
Nope. Feel free to tackle them in any order (or disorder) that suits you and only do as many as makes you happy.
When does the challenge end?
September 30th at midnight.
Who decides whether my submission counts?
We have librarians who evaluate submissions and communicate with participants. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, use the contact box. We are happy to listen and advise!
Does this book count?
When you think it does, use the "Why I chose this book?" section on the submission form to explain how it fits that particular challenge. Also check out the EXPLORE THE CHALLENGES and ADDITIONAL LINKS FOR FINDING A BOOK pages for guidance.
Is it my imagination or do I have to read more than one book for two challenges?
It is not your imagination! We have a TWO multiple book challenges! For the same word in the title you need a match word between two books -- like if one book was The Maid and the other was The Housemaid's Secret.
In the last challenge listed - you get to pick a flag, any type of flag you wish and you have to read a book for each color in the flag. (Feel free to wave the flag of surrender!)
Do the books have to come from the library?
Nope. Nope. No. The books can come from a friend, the store, the library or anywhere. It can be in any format (poetry, play, prose, graphic novel) or medium (electronic, audio, physical book).
