I know, I have signed up for enough challenges, but I found two more on Facebook that I thought looked interesting. They are the Decades Challenge and Book Voyage: Read Around the World. These challenges come with suggested reads for each prompt, which I like as it gets me out of my comfort zone and I discover more that I enjoy.
Each month, you’ll read a book SET in a different decade, in chronological order. The book doesn’t have to be written during the decade, just take place during it. You can find a list for each of the decades here.
January - 1910's - The Magnificent Ambersons by Booth Tarkington
February - 1920's - The Painted Veil by W. Somerset Maugham
March - 1930's
April - 1940's
May - 1950's
June - 1960's
July - 1970's
August - 1980's
September - 1990's
October - 2000's

The second challenge is Book Voyage: Read Around the World. The reading schedule for the year is below - along with a link for book suggestions for the first month. When you sign up they will send you a link for a fun map that will help you track your books.
