I'm happy to announce that I'm back with the Netgalley and Edelweiss Reading Challenge. I took it over in 2021 from Tina at Reading Between the Pages.
I'm always feeling like my Netgalley and Edelweiss shelves are getting out of hand and thought this challenge would help me out alot. So, although it's the tenth annual challenge, for me it's my third :) Keep reading for all the info...
Welcome to the tenth annual
NetGalley and Edelweiss Reading Challenge!
What the challenge is all about…
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the number of NetGalley/Edelweiss books sitting on your shelf to be read?
Have you lost your 80% rating and would love to get it back?
Do you want to challenge yourself to read more NetGalley/Edelweiss books?
Do you need extra inspiration to achieve that next badge?
If the answer is “YES” to any of these questions then this is the challenge for you!
Challenge guidelines…
- The challenge runs from January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2023. There is no deadline to sign up.
- Everyone is welcome to participate – you do not need to have a blog.
- Any genre, release date, length, etc. counts – it just needs to be a book from NetGalley or Edelweiss.
- Books can count for more than one challenge that you are participating in.
- The first day of each month I will post a monthly “link-up” for you to link your reviews. If you forget one month, no worries, just catch up the next month.
- Questions: Feel free to leave a comment below.
The Levels…
Bronze – 10 Books
Silver – 25 Books
Gold – 50 Books
Platinum – 75 Books
Diamond – 100 Books
To sign-up…
- Make a blog post stating the level you intend to read in 2023 and link that blog post to Mr. Linky below. The first Link should be your name, the url should be the direct link to that blog post, not your main blog page.
- If you do not have a blog then state your reading level in the comments below and how you will be sharing your book reviews.
- Last but not least, be sure to come back every month and link in those reviews. This is really the hardest part – remember to do the monthly “link-ups”!
I'm looking forward to another fun year of reading!

Wow, do I need this challenge! My problem in the last year wasn't so much reading my ARCs, as writing and posting the reviews. I'm hoping this challenge will help me do better in that regard.
