📌 My 101‑Book Numbers Challenge (0 to 100!)
Welcome to my most ambitious reading challenge yet — tackling 101 books with numbers in their titles, counting from 0 to 100. Why? Because it’s quirky, nerdy, and honestly… how satisfying will it be to fill every single number? 😍
I’ll be reading these books slowly (no rush, no stress — just vibes), and I’ll link my reviews here as I go so you can follow along. Feel free to join me if you want to — let’s turn this into a weird little bookish scavenger hunt.
The Rules (very official 😎)
-
Numbers must appear in the title consecutively (digits or spelled out — e.g., Four Winds or 1984).
-
Numbers must be between 0 and 100.
-
Any genre counts — fiction, nonfiction, classics, YA, romance, graphic novels — the wilder the mix, the better.
-
Rereads are allowed (because comfort reads are valid).
-
The goal: 101 books = 101 numbers checked off. No repeats of book titles.

Why Numbers?
Because there’s something oddly satisfying about hunting for specific titles like this — it turns book shopping and library trips into a scavenger hunt. Plus, seeing the list fill up is pure serotonin.
