Reviews are not a requirement. But if you do review, you can share links to your reviews. I'm thinking of having check-in posts on the 15th of every month.

I'm going to take the list of 104 categories and pair them down to the 88 categories that I will conceivably read. Arthur definitely enjoyed this challenge in 2017 so it shouldn't be too hard to get moving in 2018.
