I’m so excited to announce that Jessica (Reading with Jessica) and I are hosting a fun summer reading event called New-to-Me-Author Summer Bingo! We’ve both been wanting to collaborate on something on our blogs, and since we’ve both been meaning to start branching out and exploring the works of authors we’ve never read before this event was born. We hope you’ll join us!
The Basics:
- This event lasts from June 1st-August 31st, which is perfect because it won’t overrun any other reading challenges you’re participating in or books you’re excited to read that don’t fit this challenge’s parameters.
- You can only count books towards the bingo card if you have not read that author before.
- A bingo can be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. You can also go for multiple bingos or blackout if you’re feeling ambitious.
- Use the hashtag #nasbingo to share updates on your progress and tell us what you’re hoping to read.
I cannot wait to participate with you all summer!!! Jessica and I will be hosting reading sprints on our Twitter pages (@ArtsyReaderGirl and @ReadingwJessica), so be sure to follow us there to join in!
Here is the bingo card with all the prompts, as well as a blank one if you’d like to fill in the books on your TBR or update it once you’ve read. Feel free to share this challenge with others!
I can’t wait to see your TBR! My sign up post will be up tomorrow, and I can’t wait to participate.

I wasn’t going to do this one because I have several lists to read over the summer, but, I do have several new authors on my lists, so I am jumping in. I will be posting a post to link up before the end of the week.
