2015 Reading Challenge – Graphic Novel/Manga Challenge
Hi Guys I am signing up for the 2015 Graphic Novel/Manga Challenge hosted by Nicola.
What counts: graphic novels, collected trade editions, manga, comic strip collections, comic books. In print or digital. Anything else you feel is suitable. My criteria is if it has either frames OR speech bubbles it counts. I’m not going to be the comic police but if you are unsure, ask me in the comments any given month.
Here is how the Challenge plays out:
– Runs from Jan.1 – Dec. 31, 2015
– Levels
Modern Age: read and review 12 books during the year (that’s only 1 book a month)
Bronze Age: read and review 24 books during the year (Can you handle 2 books a month.)
Silver Age: read and review 52 books during the year (Are you up to a book a week!)
You must sign up for a level, but once you complete that level you may move up and try for the next one.
I am going for Silver Age and will list my books below as I read them!
