Guidelines - to successfully complete the challenge and qualify for the final prize:
  • Read classic books, from 12 categories (but you don't have to read twelve books to participate in the challenge).
  • All books must be read in 2016. Books started before January 1, 2016 do not qualify.

  • E-books and audiobooks are eligible.
  • Books can crossover with other challenges.
  • Books may NOT crossover within this challenge. You must read a different book for EACH category, or it doesn't count.
  • Updated: Children's classics are acceptable, but please, no more than 3 total for the challenge.
  • A blog isn't necessary, you can link to reviews on Goodreads or any other publicly accessible online site.
  • The deadline to sign up for the challenge is March 1, 2016.
  • You don't have to make a list of books in advance; but if you do, your list can be changed at any time.
  • Books may be read in any order.
Categories:
  1. A 19th Century Classic - any book published between 1800 and 1899.
  2. A 20th Century Classic - any book published between 1900 and 1966. Just like last year, all books MUST have been published at least 50 years ago to qualify. The only exception is books written at least 50 years ago, but published later.

  6. An adventure classic - can be fiction or non-fiction. Children's classics like Treasure Island are acceptable in this category.
  7. A fantasy, science fiction, or dystopian classic. Dystopian could include classics like 1984, and children's classics like The Hobbit are acceptable in this category also.
  8. A classic detective novel. It must include a detective, amateur or professional. This list of books from the Golden Age of Detective Fiction is a great starting point if you're looking for ideas.
