A solo Winter reading challenge to spend better time with yourself

ByIsabelle

It’s winter, and the lack of Vitamin D is doing serious damage to our dopamine receptors. When this happens, the best book lover therapy is cosying up in a coffee shop with a winter reading challenge.

This is a reading challenge you can do solo, or with a friend. It’s super fun and rewarding, and is a perfect excuse to put on a cute winter outfit and hit up the bookshops, or file through the neglected tbr pile.

Winter is the perfect time for exploring new book genres, or simply just reading the books you have been meaning to get around to but just couldn’t find the time.. or motivation. And, in the peak of Winter, reading can be a great way to spend better time with yourself.

As a book lover myself, I can guarantee that this winter reading challenge for adults and teenagers is the perfect winter reset. Not only will you have set aside time to find a new 5 star read, you will also spend a day giving back to yourself.

This blog post is all about a solo winter reading challenge for spending better time with yourself.

For this winter reading challenge you will need a book with at least 300 pages left, and a place you can go to visit a variety of coffee shops.

In each coffee shop you must get a drink inspired by the book you are reading (think seasonal syrups and hot chocolates) and remain in that coffee shop until you have read 100 pages of your book.

(100 pages is optional, choose a page count that works best for you).

Once *desired amount of* pages have been read, pack up and move along to the next coffee shop and repeat the process.

The goal is to visit 3 coffeeshops.

This winter reading challenge is the perfect way to spend the day with yourself and give back to yourself.

Bonus points:

Try supporting independent coffee houses.

Take a picture in each coffee shop and post it down below, make sure to let me know what you thought of this winter reading challenge!
