Book Grocer Book Bingo 2026

Ashleigh

I’m participating in the Book Grocer Book Bingo again this year, and using the genre challenge to see what genres I read. There are a few that I don’t usually read, and sometimes that cross over into what I do read. The prompts this year are interesting, and I am sure there are many I… Continue reading Book Grocer Book Bingo 2026

Readings Book Bingo Completed-ish

Ashleigh

 One final challenge I took part in this year was the Readings book bingo. I managed to tick every prompt apart from the cookbook prompt off, which probably had more to do with time than anything else. 2024 Prize Winner:  A Gift from the Birds by Caroline Stills (Text Prize 2024) A debut author: Earth… Continue reading Readings Book Bingo Completed-ish

Ashleigh

In July, I found another book bingo, and downloaded the card. It was shared by Rebecca Fung from Giulia Ralton, a library and literacy teacher. She explains the purpose behind a book bingo challenge here. Fingers crossed all these links work, and apologies if they don’t.  I’m always interested to see what reading challenges do,… Continue reading Book Bingo found on LinkedIn

Another #KTBookBingo completed! This was a tricky one at first, and one I thought would take me much longer to complete.

I got there in the end though, and can now focus on the rest of my reading… Continue reading #KT Book Bingo 2025 Completed
