2015 Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge - Finished

2015 Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge hosted by Melissa's Eclectic Bookshelf.

My goal this year was of course  Crone: Read 16 – 20 Witchy Books as I reached that goal already in May last year.
This year I decided to continue the whole year to see how many witchy books I was going to read in total.
I reached my goal of 20 books on the 17th of March and in total I read 52 witchy books this year. I am of course going to take part again in 2016

Welcome to the 4th Annual Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge!

Thank you so much to everyone who participated in the 2012, 2013, & 2014  Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenges!

I hope you all had as much fun as I did! Welcome to the 2015 Challenge!!

• Low commitment…you can sign up to read just ONE book as an INITIATE!!!
• Participants who choose to link up reviews will be entered for the end of year prize!!

Challenge Rules:

• This challenge will run from Jan 1, 2015 – Dec 31, 2015. I will be posting a place to link up a sign-up post (below), reviews and a wrap-up post. (Note: You do not have to review the books to participate, but only those who link up reviews will be entered for the prize)
• Grab the reading challenge button (code & button below) and post this reading challenge on your blog to track your progress. Please include a link back to this sign-up post so others can join the reading challenge too. You do not have to be a book blogger to participate- you could track your progress and post reviews on Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, etc.
• Any full length book that includes a witch as a main character or includes major witchcraft elements counts. They may be fiction or non-fiction. However, they should not be reference books which are not read cover to cover-I will leave this to your discretion.
• Books can be any format (bound, eBook, audio).
• Re-reads and crossovers from other reading challenges are allowed.
• You can list your books in advance or just put them in a wrap-up post. If you list them, feel free to change them as the mood takes you.
• When you sign up in the linky put the direct link to your post about joining the 2015 Witches & Witchcraft Reading Challenge, not just a link to your blog.
