Vuoden 2019 GR:n haasteessa on näemmä uusi optio, valita[url=https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/19438037-making-the-2019-challenge-more-less-restrictive] KIS- tai BIO-mahdollisuus[/url] (KIS = Keep It Simple, BIO = Bring It On) jos kohta on joko liian haastava tai liian helppo. Jos kohta on liian haastava tai on vaikeaa löytää sopivaa kirjaa, niin sitten voi käyttää KIS-optiota. Toisaalta jos jokin kohta on liian helppo tai todella haluaa hastaa itseään, niin sitten on BIO-optio.   Näitä voi siis käyttää joko yksittäisiin kohtiin tai voi halutessaan tehdä koko haasteen jommalla kummalla. Tai jos oikein innostuu, niin miksi ei kokeile joka kohtaan molemmilla tavoilla?   Yleinen KIS-optio: 1. Read only children's books or middle grade books or graphic novels or short stories to fulfill all the prompts   Yleiset BIO-optiot: 1. Read only female or male or LGBTQ, debut or only new-to-you authors (no repeats) for all the topics 2. Read only books on your tbr or from the library or used book store 3.

Pick a monthly theme (ie. Gay pride month, women's history month, etc), each prompt must fit that month's theme and the weekly prompt 6. Read only non-fiction or classic books for the entire challenge 7. Link all the books in a chain (ie book 2 is related to book one in some way, book 3 is related to book 2, etc) 8. Tour the world, each country in each book shares a land or water border with the country/setting in the previous book   Ja jos yleiset KIS- ja BIO-mahdollisuudet eivät riitä, niin sitten jokaisella haastekohdalle on omat.

Tavallaan arvostan tuota mahdollisuutta itse vaikuttaa haasteen vaikeuteen (KIS/BIO), mutta kun itse osallistun kolmeen eri haasteeseen, niin lisäkohtien ynnä muiden pohtiminen yhden haasteen kohdalla ei juuri nyt innosta. Mutta pidän mieleni avoimena, jos vaikka tuntuu siltä, että lukuintoa riittää. Tai jos jostain syystä saan tehtyä perushaasteen jo parissa kuukaudessa...

Joo, sama täällä. Meen varmaankin keskitietä pääosin, mutta jos siltä tuntuu niin sieltä missä aita on matalin. Voihan se olla, että vahingossa tulee törmättyä jossain kohdassa siihen haastavampaan vaihtoehtoonkin.

10. A book featuring an historical figure - [url=https://www.risingshadow.fi/library/book/3589-kahdeksan]Katherine Neville: Musta kuningatar[/url]   Tarinaa kerrotaan kahdella aikajanalla – 1790 luvulla ja 1970 luvulla. Varsinkin 1790 luvun jaksoissa on todellisia historiallisia hahmoja älytön määrä. Osa hahmoista on hyvinkin tuttuja kuten Katariina Suuri ja Napoleon, mutta suuri osa henkilöistä on vähemmän tunnettuja nimiä. Aika hyvin kirjailija saa hahmojen todellisen elämänkulun ujutettua tarinaansa – joitain juttuja oli ihan pakko tarkistaa Wikipediasta.   1/52   [spoiler] 1.

1001 kirjaa, jotka pitää eläissään lukea: Jules Verne Matka maan keskipisteeseen. Olen lukenut ennenkin; yhä jännittävä ja nykylukijallekin opettavainen, tosin ehkä hivenen liikaakin tarinan kustannuksella

12. A book about reading, books or an author/writer - [url=https://www.risingshadow.fi/library/book/8066-henkien-labyrintti]Carlos Ruiz Zafón: Henkien labyrintti[/url]   Tarinan ja koko sarjan sydän on kirjoissa. On Unohdettujen kirjojen hautausmaa, Semperen kirjakauppa sekä kirjailijoita ja kustantajia esiintyy tarinassa. Harvinainen [i]Henkien labyrintti[/i] teos on keskeinen juonessa. Tarinassa lähestytään kirja aihetta myös kirjoittamisen näkökulmasta.   Alkupuoliskon kerronta esittelee irrallisia tapahtumia, jotka herättävät kysymyksiä, kuka ja mitä? Alku ei vetänyt ihan toivotulla tavalla, mutta noin puolessa välissä tarina alkoi paranemaan ja muuttui jännitysnäytelmäksi. Juonen lankojen irtonaiset päät alkoivat pikkuhiljaa yhdistyä, kokonaiskuvio alkoi selvitä askel askeleelta. Lopulta tapahtumien vyöry oli sitä luokkaa, että kirjaa oli vaikea laskea käsistä. 4/5     2/52   [spoiler] 1. A book that was nominated for or won an award in a genre you enjoy 2.
