Goodbye Winter! Hello Spring!
Welcome back returning players! Thank you for making this group so much fun. If you are just joining us as a new player, we are glad you are here.

The Spring 2023 bonus theme is: Decades - 30s
There are 55 tasks.
The Challenge point goal is 945.
10 x 5 points = 50
10 x 10 points = 100
10 x 15 points = 150
10 x 20 points = 200
5 x 25 points = 125
9 x 30 points = 270
1 x 50 points = 50
Many of the tasks have already been posted. The remaining tasks will be posted as they are available. The aim is to have all tasks, excepting 50.1, posted by March 7. All tasks are draft until March 12 or 5 days after the last task is posted. Please carefully review the task descriptions after the task become final as task requirements may have changed during the review period. Task 50.1 will be posted around the season midpoint April 15.
Please read the task descriptions thoroughly!
We strongly recommend that you review The Rules of the Challenge, Posting Requirements and Default Rules and FAQs.
The 50 point task submission thread will open March 15.
The Spring 2023 Challenge folder holds or will soon hold: Challenge Tasks, Completed Tasks, the Readerboard, Questions/Problems, the current Challenge Rules, the season's Group Reads discussion threads, Task Ideas, the Calendar and submission threads for the season's contests.
The topics can be sorted by clicking on the topics heading.
The Spring 2023 Challenge will end on May 31, 2023 at midnight Eastern time.
We have opened a new ebook verification thread and What are you currently reading? thread as GR maintenance has made the old, large topics slow.
The next year of Group Reads categories will be selected this spring. A category submission thread will open on March 15.
Welcome JennRenee, Lucy-Bookworm, and Jayne as your incoming moderators. Please check your privacy settings to accept messages or friend the incoming moderators. Sandy and Dlmrose will continue through the Spring Challenge.
We hope this season's tasks lead you to some great books. Happy reading!
