Premier's Reading Challenge

Thank you for your participation in this year’s Premier’s Reading Challenge.

You can uncover great mysteries and explore amazing stories through the enchanting world of books. 

Your challenge 

In your account you will have access to your 2023 Premier's Reading Challenge, where you can: 

• log your books, including books from our booklist and logging new titles (these include recording foreign language material and books read in a different format)
• find more than 7,000 book titles from our booklist
• add a review or 'like' the book
• view your bookshelf, to see the books you have logged during the challenge
• track your progress in the challenge. 

You will need to log at least 12 books over this challenge but feel free to add more as you read.  

Did you know you can log more than just a novel? Reading can take you anywhere and can also take many formats. You are reading when you are looking at comic books, graphic novels, magazines, and when you are reading articles online. Even song lyrics make a great source of reading. You can log all these formats.

By logging a book, you will be in the running to win some fantastic prizes. Find out more about the Premier's Reading Challenge prizes.
