2016 9th Annual Graphic Novel/Manga Challenge Sign-Up Post!

Hey everyone...once again! I'm signing up for yet another yearly book challenge and this one is of course going to be on the Annual Graphic Novel/ Manga Challenge for this year!  I guess as for my goals, I'll just go with whatever number I'll reach this year, but hopefully I'll be able to make it to 52 graphic novels and manga this year and since I'm already participating in another comic book challenge called the "Comic Book Bingo Challenge" which you can still sign up for!

• Please write a sign-up post on your blog and then sign-up below with a link to your specific sign-up post (NOT to your home page).  

• What counts:  graphic novels, collected trade editions, manga, comic strip collections, comic books or combinations of text and bubbles all in the same book. In print or digital. Anything else you feel is suitable.  My personal criteria is if it has either frames OR speech bubbles it counts.  I'm not going to be the comic police but if you are unsure, ask me in the comments any given month.

• You must write a review and link to it for it to count towards the challenge. Reviews may be posted on your blog or goodreads or similar places. Several reviews may be gathered and posted in one link on your blog, but each book must be linked back here in the monthly linkies to count. Come back every month to record your progress.

Here is how the Challenge plays out:

runs from Jan.1 - Dec. 31, 2016

Levels

Modern Age: read and review 12 books during the year (that's only 1 book a month)

Bronze Age: read and review 24 books during the year (Can you handle 2 books a month.)

Silver Age: read and review 52 books during the year (Are you up to a book a week!)

 You must sign up for a level, but once you complete that level you may move up and try for the next one.
