I'd never thought of making a reading resolution before, but I'm planning to for 2014. This will be the year I step out of my reading comfort zone and discover the thrills of new genres including the medical thriller and cosy mystery fiction.
Don't ask me what those two are - I'd never even heard of them before today. But I know a woman who has. Shelleyrae Cusbert, who reads a book a day and blogs about her reading habit at Book'd Out, is hosting The Eclectic Reader Challenge (ERC) for 2014. The ERC invites participants to read up to 12 different books from 12 distinct categories by 31st December 2014.
You can read your selected titles in any order and at your own pace, but you must complete the challenge by the end of 2014.
Here are the categories:
1. Award winning
2. True crime (non-fiction)
3. Romantic comedy
4. Alternate history fiction
5. Graphic novel
6. Cosy mystery fiction
7. Gothic fiction
8. War/military fiction
9. Anthology
10. Medical thriller fiction
11. Travel (non-fiction)
12. Published in 2014.
So that's my reading resolution for 2014. Fancy joining me? Head over to Book'd Out for more details - and do let me know how your reading year goes.
Good luck - those two genres you mention plus the war/military are the most out on my normal zone too! Enjoy your challenge.
