Welcome, Book Dragons, to our (now) annual This or That Reading Challenge! 

If you love reading challenges but often find the large lists a little daunting and sometimes hard to follow like me then you'll be pleased to find that my reading challenge has 2 challenges a month equalling 24 challenges AND you only have to choose one or the other. You're, absolutely, welcome to choose both, though. 

 

Bloggers and non-bloggers alike are welcome!

 

If you post on social media, be sure to use the hashtag #thisorthat2024
Also, you can find this challenge on Goodreads ​(be sure to create a separate shelf for the challenge to keep track!) 
And on Discord https://discord.gg/KnMq4Ervvr
