At the start of this year, I had decided to undertake the annual Australian Women Writer’s Challenge, and the 2018 Popsugar Reading Challenge. As I will read some books that will work for both, this shouldn’t be a massive undertaking, apart from a few categories that won’t coincide with the #AWW2018.
Whilst perusing some of my favourite blogs today, I came across a Book Bingo, that Theresa Smith Writes and Mrs B’s Book Reviews are taking part in. I decided to give this a go, deciding that I would be more casual, and try to fill as many squares as I could. Rather than actively seek out all the squares, I am aiming to see where books for the other challenges fit into them to make it easier for me. I do have some books that won’t fit the #AWW2018 but might fit this and the other challenge I can do.
As today is launch day, there is no review for today. I aim to have one up on the 20th though, possibly scheduled. Keep an eye out for it and a note about which square it has filled.
To try and keep involved with Theresa and Mrs B, I will aim to complete a bingo review on the first and third Saturday of the month, whichever square happens to be have been filled at that time, and that will be the review I post.
I will be aiming to complete this over the course of the year, however, if I miss a few squares I won’t worry, though filling them all would be a very cool achievement. As part of this year’s reading journey, being able to use books across a few challenges will help me complete as many reviews and as many categories as possible.
If I double up with Theresa and Mrs B, that will be entirely coincidental, but also rather fun and interesting to see how we manage to fill the squares, and as some categories are open, what we choose to read for these ones.
My focus is of course, the #AWW2018 challenge, but this is just a bit of added fun.
Here is the bingo below, and ping-backs to Theresa and Mrs B are in the second paragraph.
If you want to join me, as a blogger, ping back this and the other posts, and share your reviews!
Welcome aboard Ashleigh! I’m keen to see what titles you fill your squares with!

Thank you. I think I will have a couple filled soon, and hopefully I can get at least one bingo. I’m choosing my books as I go.

Me too. I’m not doing it in advance.

I’m also wondering whether to post a bingo card each time I mark off a square or just for a row, I’ve got one square done – you can do a DONE in a text box in the PDF editor. On my print out. I am using little gold hearts to mark each square off.
