Centuries Reading Challenge 2010


January 1 - December 31, 2010

Becky at Becky's Book Reviews is hosting the 2010 Centuries Reading Challenge. She writes:
Your challenge is to read three (to six) books from at least three different centuries. The challenge is to read books written in different centuries, not just to read books set during different centuries. (If you choose to read more than three books, then you can double up on centuries. You can read as many as you like.) The centuries do not need to be consecutive like the decades challenge.
Other guidelines:
  • Books can be fiction, nonfiction, poetry, short stories, essays, plays, etc.
  • Books do not have to be a required length. (Though poetry and short stories should be within a larger collection. For example, a book of short stories as opposed to one solitary short story.)
  • Overlaps with other challenges are fine. In fact they're encouraged!!!
  • Audio books are welcome.
  • E-books are welcome.
  • What about adaptations and abridged novels? At least one counts towards the challenge.
Becky gives links to some reading suggestions on the post about the challenge.
