The “Read It, Watch It” challenge is back! This was a 52 Book Club fan created addition to some of our past challenges, and we’re excited to have it return for 2023!

Our “Read It, Watch It” is an optional, bonus challenge that ties into the prompts you’re already reading for the 2023 challenge! Over the course of the year, we’ll be reading, watching, and discussing books and movies that fit under four of our 2023 prompts. This is a fun way to dive deeper into a story and see the films or shows that were inspired by it! 
 

1) Our “Read It, Watch It” challenge has four prompts to be completed (read and watched) during a specific time of the year. This year’s prompts are:

January – March: A book under 200 pages
April – June: Featuring one of the seven deadly sins
July – September: A banned book
October – December: A book about secrets

2) For each of the four prompts, pick a book that not only matches the prompt but ALSO has a movie and/or TV adaptation. As always, feel free to get creative with your book choice.

3) During the corresponding months, read it, watch it, and discuss! Join the Facebook group and watch for specific discussion threads related to our Read It, Watch It challenge! These discussions will be hosted by one of our longtime 52 Book Club members, and inspiration for the original 52 Book Club Read It, Watch It challenge — Melissa Hoyt!
