Does the Christmas books counts for the reading challenge as well? Or is it separate?
Can we get a badge made by an actual human? That badge looks kinda childish.
And what books count as "Christmas" books. Like if I read a mystery and it has 1 chapter set around "Christmas" does that count? Or if it's a book set in winter and snow does that count? What exactly counts as Christmas and will there be like a separate thread to post a review on the "Christmas" book?

Inviting the previous captains to come forward to lead the teams.
Before signing up, can you explain what you mean by Holiday books? Can it be any book related to Winter/December or it has to mention Christmas specifically?
And 200 pages in total or each book?
Also, if I remember correctly, Lizzie had said that she wanted to do a Secret Santa theme for December. What happened to that?
For themed reads,(This time it's Christmas Reads) it was 500 pages earlier. Now, I made it as 200 pages.Originally posted by: missFiesty_69
Pls correct me if I am wrong, the minimum has been 200 pages for a tiered badge since the start of the contest, right ?
Yes, for tiered badges it was 200 pages since its inception.
Yes, the Christmas book reads do count for the regular monthly reading challenge, and they will be added to your team’s total as well.Originally posted by: wallflowergirl

Any book that includes a Christmas theme, chapter, orientation, winter, snow, yearend holidays or is primarily based on Christmas will be counted in the challenge.Originally posted by: Minionite

Regarding the badge-- I tried my best to create a badge with the help of AI, and later it was beautifully refined by a human touch.
