Ready Player One: A Year-Long Reading Challenge
January 1 - December 31st, 2024


Let's read books and complete tasks related to video games you know and love, and maybe a few that are new to you!


On the 1st and 15th of each month I will post a new video game in the Game Console Thread. You will have four tasks to choose from for each game. You only need to complete one. Participate in as many or as few games as you would like.


You will make your Completion Posts here IN YOUR OWN THREAD. Please use this format. {You are welcome to copy and paste the game tasks into your own thread if you would like.}
