It's time once again to sign up for the Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge. The 2025 challenge will run from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. You can join anytime and you do not have to post a review of the book. Books can come from any genre.
Additional Rules:
1) Children’s Books and Novellas are acceptable but they need to be over 50 Pages.
2) You do not need to link up each spoonful.
3) Grab a notebook or make a page or a post or a GoodReads shelf where you will keep track of your spoonfuls.
4) Crossovers to other challenges are allowed and encouraged!
5) It’s an alphabet challenge!!! The challenge is to read one book that has a title starting with every letter of the alphabet.
6) You can drop the A’s and The’s from the book titles as shown below. The first main word needs to be the letter you are counting.
Except For that pesky Q, X, AND Z titles then the word that starts with the challenge letter can be anywhere in the title. This year I have decided to allow book titles starting with EX for the X prompt.
So there are two different ways you can set up your own A-Z Reading Challenge.
A – Make a list from A-Z. Throughout the year, as you go along, add the books you are reading to the list. Towards the end of the year, you can check and see which letters you are missing and find books to fit.
OR
B – Make a list now of 26 books, picking one for each letter of the alphabet, and check them off as you read them.
For example:
A – Abduction of a Slave (Eye of Isis) by Dana Stabenow
B – Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney
C – The Crash Kindle by Freida McFadden
7) As requested – the 2025 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge has been added to Storygraph as another way to keep track of your reads.

9) Bloggers can grab the image above and make a post about the challenge to encourage others to join! Non-bloggers you can join too! Just keep track any way you wish. You can even set up a special shelf on Goodreads.com to help you keep track!
