The 52 Book Club's Summer 2024 Reading Challenge

1,237 participants, 11,002 books

Overview

 
Are you ready for a new summer reading adventure?

This year, our summer reading challenge is inspired by sports! We’re celebrating competition, global community, and the dedication, hard work, and talent it requires to become the best of the best… with 24 sport-inspired prompts! And we invite you to “compete” for a bronze, silver, or gold medal — bookworm style, of course! (Note: No physical medals will be given out, but you will get the immense satisfaction of crushing your summer reading goals!) 
 
Our Summer ’24 Reading Challenge contains a total of 24 prompts. Depending on your personal reading goals, participants will read anywhere from 8-24 books for this challenge by choosing whether they’d like to complete the bronze, silver, or gold tiers.

Bronze Tier: To complete this bronze-level tier, readers will complete at least 8 prompts on this summer challenge. For added difficulty, readers can complete only the 8 bronze prompts. OR, for lesser difficulty, readers are welcome to pick any 8 prompts total from the challenge.

Silver Tier: To complete the silver-level tier, readers will complete at least 16 prompts from this summer challenge. For added difficulty, readers can restrict themselves to the 8 bronze-level prompts plus the 8 silver-level prompts only. OR, for lesser difficulty, readers are welcome to pick any 16 prompts total from the challenge.

Gold Tier: To complete the gold-level tier, readers will complete all 24 prompts from this summer challenge.

Once you decide whether you’ll be completing the gold, silver, or bronze tier — pick your prompts and match one book to each! Get creative and enjoy! (Remember that the only person you’re actually competing against is yourself! The goals are to have fun, try new books and authors, and read more!)

The prompts for this challenge are inspired by a variety of summer sports (with bookish twists, of course!) but the books you choose do not have to be sport-related. Books read for this challenge can be about any genre or topic. As long as you think the book fits the prompt, it does! 

Note:  This challenge officially runs for the months of June, July, and August 2024. However, the prompts are timeless and you are welcome to participate and complete the challenge at any time. For a more official timeline, complete this challenge over any three-month period. For more flexibility, complete it at your own pace!
