Gals, please let me know which log would you be maintaining -- Gsheet or IF log. Make sure to keep at least either one updated if you are doing both.

G-sheet (to be edited)

Log only the books you finish or DNF from December 1, 2025 to December 30, 2025. The logging will start and end at midnight whatever time zone you're in. The logging will officially stop at midnight January 1, 2026, 11.59 EDT/January 1, 2026, 9:29 PM IST.

Log books within 3 days of finishing / DNFing them. Please DO NOT log pages that you intend to read or page counts of books that are in your TBR. ONLY FINISHED PAGES SHOULD BE LOGGED!

Add the book title/ author/ format and page count to the post you have reserved in your team’s thread (which will be posted by your captain). You will edit this post as you keep reading. You will also be adding the same page counts in the Google sheet that will be shared in your team’s thread.

Wherever possible, please use Amazon’s page counts for logging pages. For ebooks and audiobooks, use Kindle page counts. For paperbacks and hardcovers, use paperback page counts. If you cannot find the book on Amazon, you can use other legitimate sources.

For online fiction, use word count divided by 300 to log pages.

If you DNF, or if you are continuing a book from a previous month, log only the pages you’ve read this month. You can use percentage read (at the point of DNF) for ebooks, actual page numbers for paperbacks and for audiobooks, log pages based on number of hours read (40 pages per hour at normal speed)

You are responsible for tracking your own reading. Please keep an accurate log of the books you finish. We trust you to be honest. And while we understand the spirit of competitiveness, please also remember that the Reading Challenge is designed to motivate you to read more and beat your own personal counts, so you are competing with yourself!

Lastly, have fun! This is not meant to stress you out, or cause a burn out, it's meant to nurture a love of reading. Read what you can, how much you can, when you can!

Christmas Reads Rules

In order to win this beautiful badge, you need to read a minimum of 200 pages of Christmas/holiday-themed fiction/ non-fiction.

These books can be included in your page logs for your team as well, so you stand to earn 2 badges if you participate in both the Christmas Theme Challenge and the regular monthly Reading challenge.

This is an optional challenge.

You can choose to participate in only the December Reading Challenge OR only the Christmas Theme challenge, or both.

In addition to reading 200 pages, you have to post a short review and 2 quotes highlighting how the book relates to the Christmas theme in the Christmas Reads Reviews thread.
