NetGalley and Edelweiss Challenge
I joined this Challenge in 2018 and again for 2019 at the platinum level, which translates to 75 books for the year. If you’d like to sign up for this challenge, click here.
There was a change of hosts mid-year 2018 and Tina at Reading Between the Pages accepted the role. The NGEW2019 Challenge is now open.
Challenge Guidelines…
- The challenge runs from January 1, 2019 – December 31, 2019. There is no deadline to signup.
- Everyone is welcome to participate – you do not need to have a blog.
- Any genre, release date, length, etc. counts, it just needs to be a book from NetGalley or Edelweiss.
- Books can count for more than one challenge that you are participating in.
- Choose a level, but if you want to move up or down a level at any time – go for it!
- The first day of each month Tina will post a monthly “link-up” for you to link your reviews. If you forget one month, no worries, just catch up the next month.
- Questions: Feel free to leave her a comment below or use the contact page at the top of her post.
- Don’t forget to use the Hashtag: #NGEW2019 when posting your reviews.
- And don’t forget to send your challenge reports using her little blue Linky to Tina at Reading Between the Pages.
