Bookish Bingo is run by Bekka at Pretty Deadly Reviews. Sign up and learn more here.
The Details:
- Every new season has a new bingo card. This one is for books read in the months of June, July and August.
- The object is to get as many BINGOs as possible (five across, up and down, or diagonal)
- One square per book
- You do not have to review these books, or even have a blog, this is simply for books read during the allotted months
- At the end of August there will be an international giveaway for all participants. The more BINGOs you get, the more entries you get in the giveaway!

Overall I got 5 bingos! That’s pretty great, especially that I didn’t even try to get them. I just read whatever I wanted, and still read books that fulfilled most of the categories. How many bingos did you get?

I wish I knew about this! Next time, will you do a post with a bingo card on it? (Maybe you did this time and that was before we were friends…)

I will do a post with new bingo card when it shows up. I didn’t do it this time. I kind of regret it now, it seems like not many of my friends known about it. I will spread the word when the next card appears 🙂

You totally crushed Bookish Bingo! I need to get my Fall post set up so that I can start. Although I seem to prefer sleep to reading at the moment. (WHY???)
