I am so excited to be signing up with Book’d Out’s Nonfiction Reading Challenge! Last year I started to read a bit more nonfiction and this year I would like to read more. I struggled with which level to choose though, but in the end I have decided to try for the Nonfiction Nibbler level, which is 6 books from any category, Since one of the categories is Nature, and I am joining a nature reading book club this month, I hope to more than reach that goal, although I am aiming to read from more than just that one particular category. I am also going to begin tracking my nonfiction reading for the year, and this will be a big help!
If you are interested, here are the details!
Select, read and review a book from the categories listed below during the year for a total of up to 12 books. A book may be in print, electronic or audio format.
Choose a goal:
Nonfiction Nipper : Read 3 books, from any category
Nonfiction Nibbler : Read 6 books, from any category
Nonfiction Know-It-All : Read 12 books, one for each category
* You can choose your books as you go or create a list in advance. You may combine this challenge with others if you wish. Use your best good faith judgement as to whether a book fits the category or not.
* Where a book is identified by more than one category, it may only count for one, not both.
* You can read your chosen titles in any order, at any pace, just complete the challenge by December 31st 2020

I’m excited about this challenge, too, and I’ll be starting as a “Nibbler.” I already have a stack of books lined up.
Enjoy!

Good luck! I never participate in these challenges – I know, I will fail miserably! I do like nonfiction though and look forward to see what you choose for the challenge.

I’m actually trying to join less reading challenges this year because I got a bit overwhelmed and felt somewhat pigeonholed last year. One of my reading goals is to read 12 non-fiction, but they’re mostly in the social science and memoir categories. Thanks for sharing this, and good luck in completing the challenge!

I am so bad with challenges – I sign up but I don’t put pressure on myself over them. I am easily able to walk away, but I feel like I may wander my way into the books needed for this one over the course of the year. 🙂 We will see though! 🙂
