Off-Topic Discussions #6: Why are Reading Challenges fun and helpful?

 

Hello everyone! Welcome to another weekly “Off-Topic Discussion!” This week’s off-topic discussion is, “Why are Reading Challenges fun and helpful?”
I will admit that I didn’t get into the whole “Reading Challenges” thing until this year since I rarely complete any challenges that I participate in.  But this year, I’m getting involved in many reading challenges and not only do I find them extremely fun to do, but they also help me in trying out different books.

I love reading many different books and trying out reading challenges that have different themes, such as “Bookish Bingo” where you have to read certain books that fit a category on the Bingo board such as “Middle Grade,” “Fairy Tale Retelling” and “Red Cover.” It helps me read books that I normally wouldn’t read while trying out something different when it comes to reading.

So, why do you think reading challenges are fun and helpful?
