With the #192025 challenge drawing to a close, it‘s time to think about #192030 challenge—read one book originally published for each year from 1920 to 2030, starting January 1st and running through 2030.

Librarybelle ⬆️⬆️⬆️ Please let me know if you would like to be added to the tag list. This time, unlike the last challenge, I‘ll post a semiannual check in to remind to update your records for reading and for sharing with others in the group. I‘ll also tag everyone when the form is available on StoryGraph (and StoryGraph will tell you the original pub year for a book) and when the challenge officially begins. All are welcome! 2d

Bookwormjillk A little scary to be joining a challenge that ends after my youngest graduates high school but I‘m in! 2d

Deblovestoread Welp, I am not going to finish #192025 by the end of the year but finishing it and this one in 4 years seems doable, right? Count me in 😀 2d

Librarybelle @Bookwormjillk It is so hard to believe that 2030 isn‘t really that far away! 2d

dabbe Please add me! I'd love to try this. I'm planning on rearranging my clubs and cutting down, but this one sounds like a really good way to get some actual books off the shelf! Thanks for hosting! 🖤🤍🖤 2d

Librarybelle @Deblovestoread I probably won‘t finish either, but I have high hopes for #192030 ! 😂 2d

Librarybelle Sounds great, @dabbe ! I have a shelf of golden crime novels that would work perfectly! 2d

mabell Thanks you! Looking forward to checking off more boxes! 2d

Librarybelle Yay, @mabell ! 2d

Gissy 🙋🏽‍♀️Let‘s see if I will still be here or if I have to participate as a ghost👻I know..morbid me 😂Halloween is almost here 🤣 2d

Amiable @Deblovestoread I‘m not going to finish, either! I was kinda hoping that we could reset the #192025 challenge and extend the end date a couple…10..years so I can complete it. 😄 2d

Librarybelle Oh my, @Gissy ! 😂 Let‘s hope we‘re all around or else ghosts reading! 2d

Librarybelle @Amiable 😂 Clean slate starting in January! 2d

Suet624 I‘m scared. I‘ve always been tempted by this challenge, but then I just know I‘m gonna feel like I‘m under pressure. Silly, I know. (edited) 2d

Librarybelle @Suet624 That‘s understandable. I am disappointed I won‘t finish #192025 , but I‘m also amazed by the authors I met that I would not have without this challenge. 2d

Daisey I have considered joining the original randomly but really didn‘t want to in the middle, so I think I need to join the new one. No idea how close to finishing I‘ll actually get, but why not add another checklist? Please add me to the tag list. 2d

BarbaraJean Please add me! I‘m 16 books away from finishing #192025 and oddly enough, the idea of starting #192030 is helping! I was hoping to use more books from my shelves, but I have several harder reads left… with a new challenge, I feel more free to swap those out for quicker reads and save the harder ones for next year 😆 2d

Librarybelle Yay, @Daisey ! 2d

Librarybelle @BarbaraJean It is comforting, isn‘t it? I feel the same way! 2d

Mollyanna Looking forward to this! I‘ve got a bunch of old paperbacks that this should take off my shelves. 😊 2d

Librarybelle That‘s great, @Mollyanna ! 2d

Read4life Can you add me please? 2d

llwheeler Yay! Looking forward to it 2d

kwmg40 Please add me to the tag list! I'm not quite done my #192025 challenge yet but I only have 22 left so should be able to finish it early next year if not end of this year. 2d

Librarybelle Of course, @Read4life @kwmg40 ! 2d

Librarybelle @llwheeler 😁 2d

Martyr!: A novel | Kaveh Akbar

I read a few books, Two #1001Books. Fresh Dirt from the Grave was mostly set in #Bolivia for #FoodandLit. It and Voyager are #WomeninTranslation. Patsy worked for #LGBTQIA2025 bingo and Three books were for #192025. Martyr! was just because I had been recommend it so many times.
