Some bookish fun in 2021...

 The Unruly Reader has once again put out a fun Book Bingo card. I always love bookish bingo because I love finding books to fill the different categories, reading them, and then crossing off the matching square. Here are her categories for this year:


There's also an explanation of each book bingo category on the Unruly Reader's blog here if you want to know more about any of the categories. I think I'm most excited about the Quest, Survival and Unconventional squares myself. The Explorer and Edwardian categories could be a lot of fun, too. And what's nice about bookish bingo is that you don't have to post about the books you read if you don't want to, or link up your reviews; it's mostly just for fun. And you can go for a bingo, or for blackout, or for the four corner squares--whatever you want. So if you want to join in, just head over to Unruly Reader's blog and leave a comment on her bingo post. I don't know if I'll manage to read a book for every category this year, or if I'll even try, but just thinking about Book Bingo always makes me smile.

Happy Reading!

    1. My plan right now is to just read the books on my TBR list and then see if any of them fit any of the bingo categories. ;D

    1. That's what makes Book Bingo so great. You can just fill in the squares with the books you're going to read anyway. :D

    1. I love seeing what different categories she comes up with every year. Some aren't categories I'll ever fill, but it's still fun to look. :)

  7. I agree with everyone, this one actually does look like it would be fun as well as fairly challenging. Lots of room for personal creativity in those topic headings.

    1. That's the great thing about this kind of reading challenge. You can fill each category however you want, and decide for yourself which book fits what.

  8. I love the idea of Bookish Bingo. I tried it one year, but ended up giving up on a lot of challenges that year--not the challenges faults, just mine. Good luck with this one. It looks like a lot of fun.

    1. There's been a lot of years where I haven't been able to face doing any reading challenges either. I don't know if I'll do any this year, but book bingo is pretty low key which is why I like it.

    1. Reading should never be stressful! I know that's why I don't sign up for any reading challenges some years. Too stressful. :)

    1. Too many challenges is never a good thing. The nice thing about book bingo is you can print out the card and do it any time, or any year, you want. :)
