#Book Bingo 2022
I learned about this challenge from Tracy’s blog Bitter Tea and Mystery! I too am joining in on Book Bingo at Unruly Reader. This bingo card can work perfectly with my MountTBR2022 challenge. I’m sure I can find some book on my 1300+ books TBR on Kindle.
It is a basic bingo card where you try to get a bingo or go for blackout. There are some explanations of the topics but you can interpret as you see fit.

I am glad to see this, Nancy. I will be coming back to see what books you have chosen. I am sure they will give me ideas.
I too will be looking to see what you read! Which MYSTERY is the NYT best-seller you choose?
Free Time wasn’t what I was expecting, a 5 min read? Good luck and have fun with the challenge.
Yes, strange way to say ‘free space’…but I’m sure I can find a book to fill this block!
I’m sure you will find many, it will more a case of which one, since so many can be dipped into for 5 minutes, especially poetry or essay collections.
So glad you’ll be doing Book Bingo this year! Feel free to be as creative as you wish with the Free Time space — you can read whatever you wish for that space. Looking forward to following along with your reading —
Just started to fill in my BINGO card with “Period” and “Biography”. You and your compatriots have created some interesting catagories that will take me out of my comfort zone…that’s a good thing!
