We all have those books. We buy them, win them,
they're gifted to us.. Then we put them up on a bookshelf and there they stay,
collecting dust, waiting for the time when we'll finally decide to pick them
up..
Join us on a quest to dust off your TBR Pile and
read all the books you've been telling yourself you'll read next time you'll get
a chance.. This is your chance! And we've got PRIZES!!! :D
Challenge guidelines:
- This challenge will run from Jan 1, 2012 - Dec 31, 2012.
- As we would like to see quality reviews linked up to our monthly wrap-ups, only bloggers can enter. Sorry about that!
- Any genre, length or format of book counts, as long as it is a book that's
been sitting on your shelf for some time now. Only books released in 2011 and
earlier! NO ARCs and 2012 fresh-off-the-press releases allowed!
- You can list your books in advance or just put them in a wrap-up post. If you list them, feel free to change them as the mood takes you.
- When you sign up in the linky, put the direct link to your post about
joining the 2012 TBR PILE Reading Challenge (You need to include the info +
host list + challenge button. You can also grab the button code and add it to
your sidebar!)
- You can move up levels, but no moving down.
- Sign-ups will be open until Dec 15, 2012, so feel free to join at any time throughout the year.
- At the end of each month one of the hosts will post a wrap-up. Every wrap-up will have it's
unique theme, a mini-challenge, a giveaway and place for you to link up your reviews
from this month. For each review you link up, you will get one entry in a
drawing of one book of choice from Book Depository. It's open to INTERNATIONALS.
For participating in the mini-challenge you will get +1
entry.
- If you miss a wrap-up post + giveaway, you can link up your reviews next month. Do not, however, try to link up one review twice - we will be checking ;)
- December is a wrap-up for the whole year. All the book reviews you linked up January-November + the ones you'll link up in December will be entered into a HUGE giveaway - 12 books, 12 winners, INTERNATIONAL.
- You don't have to follow all the hosts to join the challenge, but you do have to follow all of us to be entered in giveaways!
