Back in May, I took the Wyrd and Wonder challenge prompts and reworked them as a book bingo for anyone fancying a reading challenge. Of course I couldn’t resist doing the same for SciFiMonth! If you’re looking for a way to structure your TBR or just love filling boxes and entering a giveaway, look no further…

Giveaway

I’ll throw a Bingo giveaway at month end – a chance to win any book I read or feature on the blog during November. Entry is open to anyone who participates in the bingo (see rules below). Participants get entered in the draw for completing any 2 prompts (which don’t have to be on the same row/column; and one can be the freebie) and gain a bonus entry if they complete a bingo – yes, I’m setting the bar low because this is meant to be fun not toil!

Rules

• Grab the bingo card (yell if you want a blank one) and comment to let me know you’re taking part (you can find a slightly different version on Instagram – same prompts tho!)
• Read some scifi books! Hopefully some of them match some of the prompts 🙂
• Each read may only be used for a single prompt
• Novellas count (for any prompt)
• The read-along prompt can only be completed by Winter’s Orbit by Everina Maxwell
• Post your completed* bingo card on your blog or other social media channel at the end of the month and tag me so I can include you in the draw
• Completed bingo cards must be posted by end of day on December 1st
• Winner will be picked on December 2nd

* completed in the sense of showing what prompts you managed to read / what books you read
