details | printables | calendar

Whether you are an old hand with romance or you are new to the genre, we thought this would be a fantastic way to discover new books and authors and catch up on things that have been languishing on the TBR. We wanted to create a reading challenge that was visual, interactive and fun but easy dive into. Thus Romanceopoly was born!

Something new for the new year - I like the books and board game mashup of this challenge as it require more than the usual. Also the interactive element looks like fun.


Level:
THE TOURIST
Neighbourhood Squares: Instead of completing every challenge in each neighbourhood, you only need to do one. For example, the Orange Neighbourhood – you only need to complete Sweet Street OR Bad Boy Circus OR Erotic Eaves.
Non-Neighbourhood Squares: Complete the Library squares
Total Books: 11
