What would a blog with a title like Read Another Page be without reading challenges?

I don’t know about you, but reading challenges have made me read many more books than I usually do. And some are even ones I wouldn’t have picked up otherwise. So let’s challenge ourselves with some reading this year! This will be the 8th year I’ve hosted a reading challenge on my blog. Are you ready to join?

Yes, you can count audio books if you actually listen to it and are not just playing it in the background while you do school, have conversations with others or walk in and out of the room.

For reviews to count you MUST review a book on Goodreads or a bookseller’s site. This can include an author’s website if they have a place to leave a comment under a book. These can be places like Amazon, Light of Faith, Book Bub, or other sites. You do not HAVE to review a book.

But before I give you the list, here are the rules. (Yes, we have rules.)

1. These books may be read in any order. You do NOT have to start at the top and read down.
2. You may count any books you read for this challenge for other challenges if you wish.
3. In order for your books to count, they must be read in 2025 between January 1 and June 30.
4. All books must be at least a few chapters in length. (Even two or three chapters, but they must have chapters!)
5. This challenge starts January 1st, and ends June 30th 2025. Any books read during that time that fit the list can count.

Also, if you get anyone else to join the challenge and read at least 2 books, you get a bonus point. (Points are earned for books read and reviews written and can then be redeemed for a book(s) or audio of one of my books when the challenge is over.)

Let’s get started!

To sign up simply send me an email (or message me somewhere) and let me know you’re joining. I’ll add your name to the Reading Companions page. (You can use the Contact form if you do not already have my email address.)

When you’ve read a book (or more than one if you’d rather) comment on this 2025 Reading Challenge Page, and I’ll mark you down for those books. Please make sure you let me know which # the book was read for so I can mark it in the right place.

If you have been a part of my reading challenges last year, you will notice that I once again have a page to share all the covers of all the books that are read during this challenge. I’ve created a google doc for you to add your own covers and links to your reviews. You can find that HERE.

Ready for that list yet? You can download a special pdf list with all the categories, spaces for titles, where you reviewed each book and even stars to mark your ratings right HERE.
