The Smell of Ink/Lukten av Trykksverte

As I've hosted an Autumn Reading Challenge on my blog earlier years, I figured out I could host one this year too. So here we go, the autumn reading challenge for 2025. The rules are fairly simple and straight forward. Complete as many prompts as you want/can, and feel free to read more than one book for each prompt. It's not like I'm a teacher and will check if you've done your homework - it's supposed to be fun. If you want to, you're totally allowed to share your reads on Instagram or TikTok with the hashtag  #TrykksverteAutumnReading2025  , but no pressure, although it would be fun to see what everyone else is reading. Also, the challenge runs from September 1st 2025 to November 30th 2025. Now, over to the prompts. Even though I'm focusing on blogging and reviewing horror and paranormal books on this blog, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, so I've got a nice mix of prompts that could suit a lot of peole.

As it's soon autumn again, I wanted to revive the autumn reading challenge I've hosted a few times previous years. The rules are fairly simple and straight forward. Complete as many prompts as you want/can, and feel free to read more than one book for each prompt. It's not like I'm a teacher and will check if you've done your homework - it's supposed to be fun. If you want to, you're totally allowed to share your reads on Instagram with the hashtag #TrykksverteAutumnReading2024 , but no pressure, although it would be fun to see what everyone else is reading. Also, the challenge runs from September 1st 2024 to November 30th 2024. Now, over to the prompts. Even though I'm focusing on blogging and reviewing horror and paranormal books on this blog, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, so I've got a nice mix of prompts that could suit a lot of peole. Reading Prompts Read a book that has autumn, Mabon, Halloween/Samhain or an autumn month in the...

Although I've re-branded my book blog a bit, I still wanted to continue hosting the autumn reading challenge that I've hosted for a few years, so I'm reviving it for this year. The challenge will be informal and laidback, running from September 1st to November 30th. There will be no pressure from me in doing ALL the categories, but you're totally allowed to do them all if you want. You can even combine them, if a book fits into more than one category if you want or read several books for one or more categories. Also, feel free to do some interpretation(s) on the prompt(s), as they are fairly open. "Reporting back" what you've read is not mandatory, only encouraged. Feel free to comment below what you've read, or if you're on Instagram or Twitter, feel free to use the hashtag #trykksverteautumnchallenge2023 . Reading should be fun and not feel forced, so I wanted to keep things as simple and easy as possible, even if it's a challenge. Anyway, h...
