2015 Snagged @ The Library Reading Challenge



Geeky Bloggers Book Blog


Hi y’all! Welcome to the 2015 Snagged @ The Library Challenge hosted by The Book Nympho and I. We decided to take the Snagged @ The Library weekly posts and turn it into a year long challenge! So are you ready to ease the punch to your pocket book, support authors, support your local library, and have some fun?

Reading Challenge Details:

• Runs January 1, 2015 – December 31, 2015. You can join any time.
• The goal is to read at least twelve (12) books from the library. Twelve should be easy, that’s one a month. While twelve is the minimum, there is no maximum limit. See the different levels below and pick the one that works best for you.
• Any format will work for this challenge (print, ebook or audio) as long as you checked it out from the library it counts.
• Books can be any genre (fiction, nonfiction, romance, fantasy, mystery, thriller, horror, etc.).
• Crossovers from other reading challenges are allowed, including re-reads. The goal is to support your local library and save money.
• To join this challenge, grab the 2015 Snagged @ The Library Reading Challenge button and post this reading challenge on your blog to track your progress. Please include a link back to this sign-up post so others can join the reading challenge too. You do not have to be a book blogger to participate; you can track your progress on Goodreads (so as long as you have a dedicated shelf and Felicia has created a Goodreads group), Shelfari (I’ve created a Shelfari group. You can join and post your progress within the group), or BookLikes, etc., for the 2015 Snagged @ The Library Reading Challenge. The point of linking up is to have a place where people can see what you’re reading.

Levels:

Dewey Decimal: read 12 books

Thrifty Reader: read 24 books - I'll be doing this level

Overdrive Junkie: read 36 books

Stalking the Bookstacks: read 50+ books
