Welcome to the 2025 edition of the Key Word Reading Challenge. We’re excited to host it again this year – albeit with a new “home” here at Chapter Adventure. It’s a new name for the blog, but the same hosts – Kim and Tanya.
HOW IT WORKS
:: Your task is simple. Read a book each month with one (or more) of the key words in the title. Variations of key words are allow. For example: Drown, Drowning, Drowned are all okay for the key word ‘drown’.
:: Follow @chapter_adventure on Instagram and Threads if you’re on there. And/or join our Goodreads Group (GXO Reading Challenges). The challenge has also been added to Storygraph if you prefer to track your progress there! Post about your read for that month on our monthly check-in post here or at any of the platforms previously mentioned with the hashtag #keywordreadingchallenge
:: Most importantly – Have Fun!

I loved the 2024 challenge and completed it a couple of months ago. Glad that it is backmbcause it does help me read down my massive personl library I use Google sheets to track all of the many challeges that Ido and my annual goal is 500 books read.
I will be joining the challenge next year. https://readingbooksagain.blogspot.com/2024/11/2025-key-word-reading-challenge.html?m=1
