2023 #ClassicFilmReading Challenge
May 20th to September 15th, 2023
It's my honor to announce that the 2023 #ClassicFilmReading Challenge is now live!
Every year I host this challenge to encourage you to read and review six classic film books this summer/winter (depending on which hemisphere you live on).
If you don't think you could read and review six books but could review one or two, I encourage you to still join! It's fun to participate even if you don't complete the challenge.
If you do finish all six books then you:
1) get bragging rights
2) are automatically entered into a giveaway to win a Kino Lorber Blu-ray or DVD of your choice. Open internationally!
I encourage you to participate even if you don't think you'll read all 6 books. All readers are welcome.
Throughout the challenge I'll be sharing review round-ups here on the blog and on my Twitter @RaquelStecher—and possibly elsewhere if Twitter goes bust. Make sure you use the official hashtag #classicfilmreading when sharing your reviews. And feel free to share your #classicfilmreading stack to showcase what you plan to you plan to read.
Here is how the challenge works:
- Sign up for the challenge
- Read a classic film book
- Write a review and post it on your Blog, Podcast, YouTube, Instagram, LibraryThing or Goodreads. Must be a public post.
- Use hashtag #classicfilmreading on social media.
- Submit your review link (see form on the official page)
- Repeat until you have read and reviewed 6 books!
- Review 6 and be automatically entered to win a prize.
Please use the review link form to submit your reading stack too!
Challenge runs from May 20th until September 15th, 2023. Sign-up before July 15th, 2023.
All of the details of the challenge are on the official page including the sign up form, the book review submission form, rules, deadlines and what counts as a classic film book.
