Masterpost Lucky no. 15 Reading Challenge

Tahun ini, Kak Astrid dari Book to Share melanjutkan salah satu  RC kerennya yang diberi nama Lucky no. 15 Reading Challenge (sekuel dari Lucky no. 14 Reading Challenge). Intinya, bakal disediakan 15 kategori yang harus dipenuhi minimal satu buku per kategorinya. Jadi peserta harus membaca minimal 15 buku per tahun, yes? Semua kategorinya keren, dan tentunya bakal ada hadiah di akhir periodenya (plus hadiah kejutan yang bisa datang sewaktu-waktu). Nah buat yang penasaran, kategori yang dipilih tahun ini antara lain:

1. Chunky Brick: Grab that book with more than 500 pages that you’d always been afraid to tackle. You know you can do it!

2. Something New: Just purchased a book lately? Don’t let it buried in your stacks, read it now!

-I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios

3. Something Borrowed: Read a book that you borrowed from someone else. Don’t make the owner waiting forever for you to finish it. (Books borrowed from friends, libraries, or even rental places, are allowed)

4. It’s Been There Forever: Dig your TBR pile and read a book that has been there more than a year. It’s time for you to appreciate it :)

-Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson

5. Freebies Time: What’s the LAST free book you’ve got? Whether it’s from giveaway, a birthday gift or a surprise from someone special, don’t hold back any longer. Open the book and start reading it now :D

6. Bargain All The Way: Ever buying a book because it’s so cheap you don’t really care about the content? Now it’s time to open the book and find out whether it’s really worth your cents.

7. Favorite Color: Pick a book from your shelf which has your favorite color for its cover! Is it pink, red or black? You decide.

8. First Initial: Read a book that has been written by an author whose first initial is the same with you (Example: My name is Astrid, and I can read anything written by Agatha Christie, Aesop, Arthur Conan Doyle, etc)

9. Super Series: Read one (or more!) books that belong in a series, it can be trilogy, or tetralogy, or anything.

10. Opposites Attract: Read a book that’s been written by a writer whose gender is different from your own.

11. Randomly Picked: Ask someone else (a friend, your spouse, even your kids!) to randomly pick a book from your TBR pile. Don’t complain whatever they choose for you, just read it :)

12. Cover Lust: Grab a book from your shelf that you bought because you fell in love with the cover. Is the content as good as the cover?

13. Who Are You Again?: You’ve never read a book from this author, maybe you haven’t even heard his/her name before. But who knows? Maybe he/she will become your new favorite author! 

-For Real by Alison Cherry

14. One Word Only!: Read a book that only has one word for its title (number is allowed as long as it’s only consisted of one word, e.g: 1, 2, 11).

-Confess by Colleen Hoover

15. Dream Destination: Read a book that has setting in a place you’ve never visited before – but would like to if you have a chance. Could be real places or even fictional!

- Wish You Were Italian by Kristin Rae

Karena saya termasuk pembaca yang moody, judul yang akan saya masukkan dalam kategori tidak akan saya tentukan dari sekarang. Saya harap saya akan rajin mereview buku yang terbaca tahun ini... nggak tahu nih kenapa dari kemarin masih belum ada semangatnya haha. Dengan banyak new releases keren di tahun 2015 dan timbunan setinggi langit, semoga saya bisa men-shout out-kan novel karya penulis debut maupun yang termasuk underrated (rating rendah padahal keren, novel keren tapi pembacanya sedikit, dll, dst). Semangat!!!!

Edit: Masterpost ini juga digunakan untuk memantau progress membaca dalam Lucky no. 15 RC.
