Are you looking for book suggestions for each of the prompts? We’ve got you covered with the list below. Happy Reading!
Reading Challenge Rules
The Fall 2024 reading challenge runs from September 1 to November 30, 2024.
The only rule is, unlike Summer reading bingo, you can’t repeat books on this board. Each of the prompts should be unique books that you read during the challenge time frame.
If you are playing the 2024 reading challenge too, you will notice that the September, October, and November prompts are each part of this challenge. You can use the same book on both boards.
How to Play
In order to play along with the Fall 2024 reading challenge, you will need to screenshot the template over on Instagram or download it right from this page (right-click to save the image).
When you complete a book, upload your board to stories by adding text or an image of the book you read over the prompt. Feel free to tag @beyondthebookends as you fill in the books along the way. We are looking forward to sharing everyone’s boards all fall long!
If you subscribe to the Beyond the Bookends newsletter, each quarter a free magazine is published featuring reading challenge picks and new release highlights. Many of the prompts on this bingo board are in the magazine as well!
