Are you up for a challenge…

We have created our very own reading challenge for 2026 and would like to invite you to join:
THE ENGLISH BOOKSHOP READING CHALLENGE 2026!

The challenge form has 52 prompts (plus a bonus one!). Pick up a form at one of our shops or download it here:

Why not challenge a friend or two and take on the challenge together? The more, the merrier!

Join the Facebook group to show off your progress and discuss the prompts you find tricky. There are lots of fun and helpful people in our challenge community!
» Join the facebook group

The rules are simple:
– You cannot write down the same book for more than one prompt (except for this year’s ”re-read” prompt).
– If you manage to tick 12 boxes, it counts as having completed the challenge.
– If you manage to tick 24 boxes, you will have finished the challenge with a gold star.
– If you manage to tick all 52 boxes, we will be mightily impressed. There will even be a little surprise for you as a prize!

Please feel free to share recommendations that fit the prompts in the facebook group. We will do our best to provide recommendations as well.

This reading challenge and the facebook group is hosted by the Göteborg shop.
