Shhh, Just Go With It 2023 Reading Challenge

Starts: Sunday, 01 January 2023

Ends: Sunday, 31 December 2023

Are you always finding yourself gravitating towards the same genres and authors?

Shhh, just go with it is a reading challenge to open you up to new books you wouldn't typically pick for yourself. These prompts are ones inspired by people I have met on Bookstagram and some of my faves from previous challenges.

What to do

Follow my bookstagram if you're not already. Click here
Use the following list, discover new books and authors
Your start date is Jan 1, 2023. You can start planning before then, but NO READING until Jan 1st! Obviously I mean reading for this challenge.
In my highlights you will also find a board you can use to fill on your Instagram and share in your stories, use #shhhjustgowithit2023 , #TheShhhList and / or tag me @themaritimebookworm to share your progress!
Try to get out of your comfort zone, you'll never know who you will find and love.
Most importantly, have fun. This is to help you discover new material you might actually love but just don't know it yet! Don’t make this more difficult.
