The First Challenge

The first challenge or step is “Random Book Selection”. You must choose a book at random from your favorite bookstore or library.

Instructions:

  1. Visit Your Favorite Bookstore or Library: Head to a place where you love to explore books. It could be a cozy corner of your local bookstore, a grand city library, or even an online bookshop with a random book selection feature.
  2. Random Selection Method:
    • In-Store Method: Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and walk down an aisle or browse a section of your choice. When you feel ready, reach out and pick a book from the shelf. No peeking! Let fate guide your hand.
    • Online Method: If you’re using an online bookstore, try using a random book generator tool or ask a friend or family member to pick a number that corresponds to a page or section of the website. Click and choose the book that the random process lands on.
  3. Purchase or Borrow the Book: Once you’ve made your random selection, either purchase the book if you’re at a bookstore or borrow it if you’re in a library. Resist the temptation to switch your choice; part of the fun is sticking with the book destiny has chosen for you.
  4. Begin Reading: Dive into your new book with an open mind. You might discover a new favorite author, genre, or series that you would have never chosen on your own.

The Purpose

This step encourages you to step outside your comfort zone and experience the thrill of discovering something completely new. Whether it’s a genre you’ve never read before, an author you’ve never heard of, or a story that seems unusual to you, this random selection could introduce you to a world of literature you might not have encountered otherwise.
