Your mission, should you choose to accept it: once a month pull a dormant book out of your TBR pile and read it. On the 3rd Wednesday of the month, talk about that book.
Participation is as easy as being on social media!
- If you're on social media all you need to do is use the #TBRChallenge hashtag - there's no need to sign-up and your participation can vary throughout the year.
- You can use this hashtag on any day, at any time - but we're still going to concentrate on the 3rd Wednesday of every month to kick our commentary into high gear.
- The idea is to have at least one day a month where we can always count on there being book chatter.
Want to let your blogging freak flag fly? If you have a blog and want to post TBR commentary there, drop me a comment on this post with a link to your blog or hit me up on Twitter and I'll post it on the information page so followers and other participants can find you.
January 16 - We Love Short Shorts! (shorter reads)
February 20 - Series (book that is part of a series)
March 20 - Favorite Trope
April 17 - Something Different (unusual setting, sub genre you don't read all the time, etc.)
May 15 - Backlist Glom (author with more than one book in your TBR)
June 19 - Historical
July 17 - Contemporary
August 21 - Random Pick
September 18 - Kicking It Old School (original publication 10+ years ago)
October 16 - Paranormal or Romantic Suspense
November 20 - Sugar or Spice (closed door "just kisses" or super steamy!)
December 18 - Holiday (any holiday!)
As always, the themes are optional. Don't like 'em, don't have to use them. See how easy this is? I mean really, how could you not want to join in on the fun?

OK. I'll be in this challenge again. My blog http://romanticanorosa.blogspot.com/ although it's mainly in Spanish, I make the effort and try to write at least this review in English to make my TBR pile a little smaller. Good luck to everybody!
I'm going to try to do this every month next year. Consider this my signing up for this challenge. Thanks for all the work you do on this, Wendy! Wish me luck!
Bona: Welcome back! I'm glad you are signing up again! (And you don't have to write your reviews in English, but I love that you use the Challenge to get some practice. I'm trying to imagine me writing my reviews in Spanish and it would not go nearly as well!)
Rowena: Yippee! I went ahead and put you down as posting at Book Binge - but depending on Book Binge's posting schedule, you can always chime in on my blog or social media or not at all (and just keep up with the Challenge on your own).
I've failed every year I've tried, but hell, hope springs and all that jazz. Sign me up.

I'll be here on the blog, commenting. Hopefully every month, although I didn't do so hot this year. Excelsior!
I was wondering when this post would appear on your blog! ;)
I want to do the challenge again too!
