SpaceTime Reading Challenge







For the past several years, I have participated in two SF reading challenges/events that were limited (running only in December/January), but neither of these events look to be on offer this time around. So I'm going to jump on board Jemima's spaceship and sign up for her SpaceTime Reading Challenge. This will actually work better for me since I'll have a whole year to read science fiction rather than trying to arrange my January reading schedule around SF. Here's the brief description of the challenge (for full details and to sign up follow the link above):



SpaceTime Reading Challenge

You choose your book, from any part of the science fiction genre universe – hard scifi, military, scifi romance, space opera, first contact, time travel, whatever.  It’s up to you.  You add the book to your list of books read, with a review, as short or long as you like.  Make your own rules about ‘only Hugo winners’, or ‘only space opera’…  as you wish.

There are several levels. I plan on starting with the first level 

~5 Books: Planet Hopper  

1. Zion's Fiction by Sheldon Teitelbaum & Emanuel Lottem, eds (2/6/19)
2. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle (2/17/19)
3. A Hard Rain by Dean Wesley Smith (7/31/19)
4. The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North (9/16/19)
5. The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood (10/4/19)
