2014 TBR Pile Reading Challenge

I have decided to join in on the TBR Pile Reading Challenge over at Bookish. This challenge gives you the ability to go back to those books that have been on your bookshelves for ages, gathering dust, and finally give them the time in order to read them. I am very excited about this idea as I have plenty of books I have been meaning to go back and read. Here are the guidelines from their blog:

  1. This challenge will run from Jan 1, 2014 - Dec 31, 2014.
  2. Anyone can enter! You don't have to be a blogger, as long as you review the book you've read! (On your blog, Amazon, Random Buzzers or Goodreads/Shelfari!)
  3. Any genre, length or format of book counts, as long as it is a book that's been sitting on your shelf for some time now. Short stories and novellas are OK, too! Only books released in 2013 and earlier! NO  2014 ARCs and 2014 fresh-off-the-press releases allowed!
  4. You can list your books in advance or just put them in a wrap-up post. If you list them, feel free to change them as the mood takes you.
  5. When you sign up in the linky, put the direct link to your post about joining the 2013 TBRPILE Reading Challenge. (If you don't have a blog, post about it on Facebook or Tweet!)
  6. You can move up levels, but no moving down.
  7. Sign-ups will be open until Dec 15, 2014, so feel free to join at any time throughout the year.
  8. On the 25th of each month we will post a wrap-up post, here, on BOOKISH. Every wrap-up will have it's unique theme, a mini-challenge, a giveaway and place for you to link up your reviews from this monthFor each review you link up, you will get one entry in a drawing of one book of choice from Book Depository. It's open to INTERNATIONALS. The giveaway will be open until the next wrap up post goes up! (i.e. the entire month)
  9. If you miss a wrap-up post + giveaway, you can link up your reviews next month. Do not, however, try to link up one review twice - we will be checking ;) 
  10. December is a wrap-up for the whole year. All the book reviews you linked up January-November + the ones you'll link up in December will be entered into a GRAND PRIZE giveaway
  11. You don't have to follow Bookish Blog to join the challenge, but you do have to follow us to be entered in giveaways!
 More information can be found on their blog. Are you going to join in?

  1. I joined this one as well. So far I'm doing a pretty good job of it, though I've been busy with review books these first few months. Good luck culling your TBR!!

    1. Awesome! I'm glad to know some others that are doing the challenge! I know! I have been reading a lot of books for review over the last month as well, but I look forward to digging into books on my shelf for this challenge as well. Good luck and happy reading to you as well! :]

  2. I signed up for this reading challenge too but haven't seen any wrap up posts to link up to on their blog...have you? I am a little confused by it, so haven't actually read any off my TBR this month. I think I am going to just read what I want when I want for the time being.
    Good Luck!

    1. No, I didn't really see any other link ups to them, either. I thought I read something about them doing one at the end of each month, but I'm not too sure. For now I'll just keep reading whatever I need to as well. Thanks for stopping by! :]
