For those of you who like a challenge, and for those of you who like structure to your reading, may I recommend you visit the following site:

Here you can find details of a Scavenger Hunt Challenge for 2016. The idea is very simple. To complete the challenge you need to read Golden Age titles which feature the items listed in the Scavenger Hunt in their cover illustrations. There are 75 items to locate and, to make things just a teensy bit harder, a book can only be counted once even if it features more than one of the items listed. Could make for some tricky decisions as to which item is the “rarest” when deciding where to record a book in the list.

So I shall be hunting through my copies of Golden Age novels to see which to re-read with a view to making some quick inroads into that list in the New Year.
