Happy 2024 Fic Challenge!
@jandjsalmon and I are here with the new fic reading challenge for 2024! Heck yeah! Jandy did most of the work this year, I'll be honest, and the new challenge looks great!
For the uninitiated, basically there's a bunch of tasks to complete as you read fanfiction over the year. For example, read x number of authors, read a new ship, read a fic with x in the title, etc.! It can be a fun way to challenge yourself, or to help you read more, or to discover new things you might never have tried!
But here, without further ado...
2024 Fic Reading Challenge spreadsheet
There are also two fic trackers you can use (or you can create your own, of course).
Jandy's Fic Tracker
Juulna's Fic Tracker
Remember that for any of these spreadsheets, you need to 'make a copy' for your own use. Otherwise you won't be able to edit anything!
We have a pinned post with all the important links, but I'll include a couple here for ease of access.
We have a Discord!
We also have completion badges every year, and here are last year's as an example. (They are adorable.)
And, of course, there are rules (with a helpful FAQ).
Anyone is welcome to join, even if you don't hang out with us in the Discord! And the whole challenge is done on the honour system. You say you completed Extreme Mode? I ain't checking that out! :P
Well, we hope that everyone has a good time with this year's challenge! We're as excited as you are. And remember: there's never a stupid question if you need to ask us anything. We do accept Anon asks, too. <3
Have fun reading, and here's to a great 2024 overall!

The rules for this reading challenge are simple. First of all, this is just for fun so no need to feel pressured into doing anything or reading anything you don’t want to. You can also be flexible with the prompts if you choose to do so. The challenge will run from January 1st, 2024 and till December 31st, 2024.
There are a total of 104 reading prompts divided into 13 categories. There is a list of levels given and you can choose which level you wish to participate in based on your preference. The levels you can participate in are as follows:
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse: 13 books — fulfill one prompt from each category

For all my bookworm friends who enjoy tracking their books, I highly recommend ditching Goodreads this year and going all in on StoryGraph.
It’s a great, free app that lets you track books, rate them, mark them as complete or did not finish, and has a rating system much more nuanced than just giving 1-5 stars. It also provides trigger warnings for books separate from reviews so you can check the content without getting spoiled!
You can also set goals for yourself for the year, in pages, books, or minutes listened to audiobooks! You can also join other people’s challenges that include book bingos or genre challenges!
If anyone is interested in befriending me, my account username is the same as my Tumblr: pagesinmylife
