AlmostAChunkers

I saw that @rockpools had an “Almost a Chunkster“ category on her #BookSpin list and it inspired me to spontaneously create a new 2022 challenge! 😂 I have SO MANY books of this length on my TBR! One of my big goals for this year is knock some of these little-loved mid-range books off my list. They aren't quick & snappy like short books & they don't come with the feeling of accomplishment of their longer brethren - so I'm here to create a space ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) to celebrate those almost-a-chunksters!! Feel free to join in and tag me as you read/finish books of this size. I'm going to try and get through at least 15 of them this year!! Let's give those slightly-longer-than-comfortable books some love!! 😆

rockpools 😂😂🤣😂😂 When you said you‘d created a challenge, I didn‘t realise you meant there and then on the spot! I‘m in. I‘ll aim for 5 this year 😁 2y

DivineDiana Yes! I am going to choose a few too! 2y

Lcsmcat I‘ll join in - although I‘m not going to try to predict how many I‘ll get read. 2y

Laughterhp Haha this is great! I‘m sure I have quite a few books that fit into this category! 2y

ravenlee I just finished one today! The Wilson translation of The Odyssey clocks in at 582 pages (I think). And I thought, whew - wait, that‘s it?! 2y

rabbitprincess I‘m reading one of those right now 😂

The Ringed Castle: Book Five in the legendary Lymond Chronicles

Bookzombie I have a couple that are around 500 pages on my February #bookspin list. I also have one that is just over 900 and I‘m using it for two spots, but the others don‘t seem big enough for two spots. What I‘m saying is that I will try to remember to use this tag when I read these mid-size books. 😂 2y

Allylu I have a few of those, too! I will play! 2y

Megabooks I‘d like to finally knock this off my list

Free Food for Millionaires

TheAromaofBooks @slategreyskies @mdm139 @rockpools @DivineDiana @Lcsmcat @Laughterhp @ravenlee @rabbitprincess @Bookzombie @Allylu @Megabooks - I may post a little check-in post every now and then, but nothing too crazy!! Sometimes it's nice to have some encouragement for those books that aren't actually “that“ long, but feel long to read!! 😂 2y

TheAromaofBooks @rockpools - I recently discovered Canva as a way of making graphics for my Litsy posts, so now I'm all about creating challenges like right now 😂 2y

TheAromaofBooks @ravenlee - I did the same thing when I finished The Fire (by Katherine Neville) this week. I was like, “HOW is this only 441 pages?!?! I've been reading it for five years?!?“ 😂 Some books just feel longer than they actually are! 2y

Megabooks I just love having a fun hashtag! 2y

Zuhkeeyah Definitely going to be using the hashtag. So many on my list fall in this category. 2y

Mirazzles I love this idea! I have so many in my TBR pile 😊 2y

TheAromaofBooks @Megabooks - Right?! As soon as I saw that category on @rockpools 's #BookSpin list I knew I had to steal it! 😂 2y

TheAromaofBooks @Zuhkeeyah @AWildMandaPanda - Good luck with your mini-chunkster reading!!! 2y

Allylu I found 3 #AlmostAChunkers on my February #BookSpin list!! 2y

kwmg40 Great idea! I'm working on the Malazan Book of the Fallen series by Steven Erikson and I also want to reread the Expanse series by James S. A. Corey, so this challenge will give me some motivation. 2y

CoverToCoverGirl Awesome! Thank you! 2y

megnews I‘m more comfortable with this than the chi later challenge. I‘ll try. I just finished one today at 499 pages

Sunflower Sisters: A Novel

OriginalCyn620 I love this idea! I know I have some books that fall into this category but can‘t think of specific titles off the top of my head. I‘ll check my shelves! 2y

janeycanuck Oh, good idea! I think I‘ll aim for 3 this year. 2y

GinaKButler I love this! @Kelly326 Check this out! 2y

Tera66 I'm have several in line this year. I'm in. 2y

Morr_Books Yes!!! ❤️ 2y

Bookworm54 This is a great idea! :) 2y

Butterfinger I'm joining. 2y

ncsufoxes This is a great idea, I‘ve got several books that fit this profile (A Promised Land, The 1619 Project, A Developing Mind, & probably a few more). 2y

UwannaPublishme Great idea! I‘ve been afraid to put any of these on #BookSpin in case they get picked! 🤣 2y
