2025 Yearly Reading Challenge
Do you feel that? It’s time for the 2025 B&N Book Challenge! Every year we give you the challenge and you go forth and pick the book. This year, we’re going to make it a little easier and give you two suggestions per week to help you meet the goal. 52 Books in 52 Weeks. Daunting? Sure! Impossible? Possibly! Fun? Absolutely.
The truth about all book challenges is that it’s a challenge. There’s no grade at the end. No parade. Just satisfaction that you went to new worlds you haven’t gone to before.
These books are merely a jumping off point to get you into the spirit of the thing. Peruse our website, go down rabbit holes of books and choose your own adventure.
With that, go forth and conquer. What happens in the B&N Book Challenge, stays in the B&N Book Challenge.
