Reading with Style discussion

Summer Styles

With the introduction of our all sub-challenge season, this is a much shorter list than other seasons.

1. Before 1996 (5 points): Read a book originally published in 1996 or earlier.

2. Review (5 points): Share your thoughts about what you are reading. Post a 50 word or better review to let us know the good, the bad, and the ugly.

For this summer season, we will be suspending our lexile rules. Now is the time to dust off those titles that have not made the cut in previous seasons and get them read!

Summer Finisher Awards

1. 10-point task creation -- the top three readers for the Summer 2021 Challenge, as determined by overall points, will each get to create a 10-point task for the Fall 2021 Challenge. (We will use the top 3 finishers who are not already creating a task for the Fall season).

2. Random -- All participants (except mods) who claim at least five books during the Summer 2021 season will be automatically entered into a drawing for a $25 US Amazon gift card to be awarded at the beginning of the Fall 2021 season. As this will repeat from season to season, the winner will not have won the drawing in either of the two previous seasons.

* although participants may be eligible for multiple rewards, only one will be granted per challenge. (Random excepted)

* Participants that create tasks for three consecutive challenges are ineligible for a task-creation reward on the fourth. Instead, the member will be asked to submit a group read book. Eligibility is reinstated on the following challenge.
