My second challenge for 2022 is the Dymocks Reading Challenge. It’s another one that has categories that are fairly open, and easy to find books for. The reason I like these sorts of challenges is because I can adjust what I read to fit the categories, rather than having to find a specific book for every category. I find the open categories easier to work with as a reviewer and quiz writer, because it is likely I will be able to tick off most of the categories with books that I read for those jobs. Some might be more challenging or take more time to fulfil, and that largely depends on what crosses my path during my reading. But I will do my best to complete all 26 categories, and may already have a few ideas for some of them.
