🎗🎉 CHALLENGE DESCRIPTION 🎉🎗

Crossword puzzles will be the rage in YLTO for 2023. Sharpen your pencils and get ready to decipher.

(view spoiler)[
For this challenge, there will be 12 Crossword puzzles, and 10 tasks each. I originally intended to give you gifs of the puzzles I used and the solutions, but they didn't translate too well so I opted to scrap them. They were small and blurry. Instead, I have given the clue in italics, and the answer in spoilers if you're tempted to solve them.

The Challenge:

To complete this challenge and earn a badge, you must read 12 books. You will select one task from each puzzle.

Subsequent Challenges:

If you complete the challenge, there are subsequent challenges you may attempt.

There will be 7 badges this year.
Badge 2 - read all the remaining tasks for 2 puzzles (18 books).
Badge 3 - read all the remaining tasks for 2 more puzzles (18 books).
Badge 4 - read all the remaining tasks for 2 more puzzles (18 books).
Badge 5 - read all the remaining tasks for 2 more puzzles (18 books).
Badge 6 - read all the remaining tasks for 2 more puzzles (18 books).
Badge 7 - read all the remaining tasks for the last 2 puzzles (18 books).

If you finish all 7 badges, you will have read 120 books.

As we did for the 2022 challenge, you must complete each badge in order. You may not read out of order. You may not start a badge 2, 3, 4, etc book until you are finished badge 1 and so on with each badge.

You may read a monthly challenge book and count it towards your annual challenge.

Have fun solving the puzzles and I hope you have a great year of reading.
