Catsby's TBR Game

It's the change of seasons here in NC, which means a new reading challenge from Cat's Corner.  Well, for this autumn I have created something just a bit different!  How much do you love board games?  If you are following any "book" influencers on any of the social media platforms you have probably seen a version or two of different board games that have been transformed into something "bookish".  Well I did the same thing ... and of course Catsby had to be involved!  Say "Hi" to Catsby and his TBR Game!!

The play is basic:  you will need one 6-sided die and a marker to move around the board.  Start your marker at the purple "Cat's Corner" square in the lower left of the board.  Roll the die once and move your marker that number of spaces "up" in a clockwise rotation.  Wherever your marker lands, you need to find and read a book that matches the prompt given (as closely as possible.)  When you finish book 1, roll again and continue around the board, reading books to fit each prompt you land on.

The full directions for play and explanations for each prompt space are given in the PDF link below, as well as a copy of the game board for you to print out.

I will be playing this game for the months of October, November, and December and will be documenting my play here in this blog, FB, and Instagram.  My goal is to read down the physical books I have on a cart at home.  If I am unable to match the prompt to a physical book, I will go to Libro for an audiobook or my Kindle app, but will also roll again to get a new prompt for a physical book.  Because this challenge/game is 3 months long, I should have no problem reading through some of my stack (she hopes)!

As always, let me (and Catsby) know what you think of the game and if you will be joining me on this quest!  I always love to hear what you are reading!!
