I first heard about this challenge from the booktuber Jess from PeaceLoveBooks. Romance has never been a big genre for me, I sometimes find it so corny and just over the top. Recently I have really been enjoying New Adult novels as well as Urban Fantasy/Paranormal Romance. I have been buying more and more each time I go to the bookstore and have also picked up some historical romances novels because they intrigue me, yet have not read any.
You can click on the graphic to find out all about the rules and how to sign up. This is based off the game Monopoly and the creators have even taken the time to develop a printable game board and other really cool things for this year long challenge. “Each neighborhood in Romanceopolis offers up a new genre to explore and each street has a unique challenge within that genre. Although, some neighborhoods are a little more diverse and offer a melting pot of different genres to delve into.”
They also have a variety of ways in which you can play the game, with different levels of participation. I think I am going to go with the scenic route, which will be rolling the dice to determine where you go. As well I will be partaking in the tourist level which will be a total of 11 books. Depending on when I finish I might add more, but I am trying to set realistic goals in 2019. There are also mystery challenges and social media challenges that at this time I do not think I will be doing, but might.
