Beat the Backlist 2025

Beat the Backlist is a yearly reading challenge hosted by Austine Decker. The goal is to help participants read some of the books lingering on their TBR stacks from years past. There are (optional) reading prompts to help motivate or increase the fun. You can follow my challenge progress on this page, which I update monthly.

Read Harder 2025

Read Harder is hosted by BookRiot and contains a list of 24 prompts. These will help participants read more thoughtfully and diversely. I started using a reading tracker spreadsheet that included the prompts, so I figured I’d give it a try. Check out my progress here.
