About the Clock Reading Challenge
I started the Clock Reading Challenge in 2021 and every year I've discovered some great books through doing the challenge. There's a lot of books out there with the numbers one to twelve in their titles!
If you're looking for a relatively easy reading challenge to do in 2025 the Clock Reading Challenge is for you! It only involves reading a total of 12 books during the year.
That said, some numbers can be a little trickier to find books for than others...
The Challenge
The goal: to read 12 books, each with a number from 1 to 12 in the title.
The officially hashtag for the event: #ClockReadingChallenge
Keeping track of your progress: I've created this graphic so you can fill in your clock with the book covers of the books you read. Hopefully at the end of the year your clock will be complete.
Just download the graphic and then upload your book covers to it. I personally use Canva to do mine.
12 books in 12 months, each with a number from one to twelve in the title to make up a clock face.
This is a very relaxed reading challenge. There is no punishment for not reading all 12 books.
Skip a month? No problem. The goal is 12 books in 12 months so you have plenty of time to catch up latter on if needed.
If you'd like to plan out the books you want to read for the challenge in advance here's a template you can use for your TBR:

This looks so fun, I'll see if I can find some books with numbers in them and see if I can join in :)
ReplyDeleteGreat! Welcome to the challenge. If you want any suggestions just ask. I have several posts set up with ideas for each number too.
DeleteI enjoyed this one in 2024....Eleven is a difficult one for me (especially since I try to read from my own stacks as much as possible). If I can dig up another "eleven" book, I'll dive in again for 2025.
ReplyDeleteOkay...I did it. I'm in for another round: https://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2024/12/2025-clock-reading-challenge.html
DeleteWelcome back Bev! Looks like you have some good choices for this years challenge. Number eleven is often one of the hardest for me too. I always seem to have loads for some numbers and struggle to find books for others.
DeleteOmg how fun. I’m definitely going to do this!
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard!
DeleteI'll be joining this one.
