A 2025 RAD Reading Challenge

it’s tiiiiiime!

i’ve already started my 2025 book journal, so i’m prepped and ready to get this new challenge loaded! as always, the 2025 rad reading challenge has nine prompts to help you stretch your reading boundaries a bit while still being accessible.

this is one of my MOST favorite things to create and share with you, year after year. (this is year number seven !!!) i love having goals, and having a nudge to read different kinds of books than i might naturally gravitate to. i’m personally setting an additional goal to fulfill every prompt with a book by a marginalized author, because as you know, it matters a lot to me to put my money and my support behind the kinds of creators and the kinds of works i want to see more of in the world. feel free to join me in that effort!

i will also be sharing recommendations for all of these categories throughout 2025 on my substack — be sure you’re subscribed!

 

here’s the 2025 rad reading challenge:

if you, too, want to print it and put it in your journal, i have an a5 version that should work great (or just save the above graphic and print that, if you want a square!).

can’t wait to read alongside you all in 2025!

if you share on social, please tag me @alltheradreads and use #aradreadingchallenge so i can see!
