I am planning on reading books like I do every year. The only difference might be, that I probably won´t be reading as many new releases as I have during the past years. Not all my book requests get granted and not all new releases I want to read are available at my local library. And buying every book I want is not always an option. But reading is the key, and as long as the challenge is fun to do, I am in. So, again, I am aiming for the New Release Newbie and see how things will go from there. And, yes, I am curious how 2022 will turn out concerning my reading plans.
But I don´t want to miss the fun this challenge hosted by Lexxie & Brandee at (un)Conventional Bookworms provides and with that I am signing up for the next year. I don´t know if I will reach my goal of at least 30 new releases with the knowledge that I might not reach my set goal for 2022. But hey, it is a challenge supposed to be fun for everyone who participates – and that is what counts, right?
There is only one thing I want to add (to avoid any misunderstandings). I handle this blog and my reviews in English, but the books I read are mostly German books, which means – for this challenge – that the German translation is published in 2022. And I will be reading some English books, too. And the ones I will use for this challenge are of course released in 2022. As you might have already guessed, the 2022 New Release Challenge is a year-long challenge in which we aim to read books released in 2022. There will be monthly update posts, and each quarter – the end of March, end of June, end of September, and in December, there will be a giveaway with the update as well.
There is also a Facebook Group, to have a place where we can keep up with each other, cheer each other on, ask questions, and get to know each other better. It is also a place where we can help each other to find even more new releases. So, make sure to step in and have some fun along the way …
