It’s time to clean off those bookshelves, piles, stacks, or wherever your books are hiding including your e-reader. Who’s in to spend 2022 making a dent in those books and allowing room for new ones?

LEVELS:
1-10 - Barely Begun
11-20 - Clearing a Chunk
21-30 - Managing More
31-40 - Seeing a Shelf
41+ - Finally Some Room

Please respond with “I’m in!� if you are going to take part in this challenge and what level you are choosing.

I'm in! I like the idea of making it a stack challenge. I will set my level at Seeing a Shelf, with 8 stacks of 5 books each. I wonder how many I will actually be able to complete!

Ladies this is not the stack challenge from last year, but if you want to make stacks, go for it.

Thanks, Loraine! Stacks were mentioned in the first sentence of the challenge, so I thought I'd organize my tracking posts and notebook that way. It's more likely I'll clear out a few stacks of books rather than a few shelves from my bookcases.

11-20 Cleaning a chunk. I am collecting books faster than I can read them so I will be cleaning off my shelves to make some room!!!
