It’s time for a brand new challenge for the New Year: 2018 Bookish Resolutions Challenge
We are going back to basics! We thought we made it too complicated last time, so this time we are going back to the beginning. If it’s Bookish it counts, however we are no longer allowing personal goals since this is a bookish challenge, it’s all about the book world.
Sign Up is between 12th December and 28th February, the challenge starts January 1st and ends December 31st 2018 Bookish Resolutions Challenge is about setting New Years Resolutions for books and book blogging…You can sign up via blog post, Facebook, Twitter or Goodreads!
Rules:
1. Create between 3 or more resolutions related to books/book blogging/writing (there are examples below but you can make up your own)
2. Create a sign up post and add it to the Linky on this post (sign up before Feb 1st)
3. This is a year long challenge, so you can’t add resolutions that could be done in a day these must be year long goals.
4. Twice a year we will have an update to see how you are doing. One in April and One on August. The last update will be the end post in December for you to link up. You will find the link on both mine and Laura’s blog
5. For each goal you complete you get one entry into the giveaway that will be in our wrap up post on December 31, 2015
Giveaway:
We’ll be giving away two $5 Amazon gift cards at the end of December 2018.
Examples:
As this is a personal challenge everyone is likely to set different goals! But to make things easier, we’ve come up with some blogging and reading examples!
Blogging/Reading Goals
• Get my Netgalley percentage up to XX % (percent is up to you!)

I’m joining for the first time. Hopefully this year will be my year!!
I’m in! I failed so many challenges last year. I’m hoping this will be my year. I’ve got a good list of goals.
Glad you are joining. I think making it simple this year a lot of us will pass. I might add one more to my list but for now I am loving the goals and thing I can do it since I’m only doing my challenges this year to give myself a break from the crazy 🙂
I will have to think on this and see if I want to try it again as I always fail and I am not doing many challenges this coming year. 🙂
I’m only doing my challenges this year. I’m going to do better with this one since I set it to all Reading goals since it’s the Reading I want to accomplish this year coming up. My goal post is up on Thursday.
