COYER is one of my favorite reading challenges. Between freebies and review copies, I have way too many ebooks crying out to be read. Shush books, your turn is coming! They're noisier than a hungry cat, lol. COYER's focus is exclusively ebooks, and now audio; sorry print book, go to the end of the line.
The details, from the official sign up post:
Read
Your E-Reads! Every book you read must be in an electronic format –
meaning E-Book or Audiobook. It’s okay to start a book before December
20th, you must be less than half way for it to count then review it
during COYER. - See more at:

- Read your digital books, ebook or audio.
- The books must be free or nearly free - library, review, tour, NetGalley, Edelweiss, etc. No more than $5 for ebooks and no more than $16 for Audiobooks (or the equivalent in your currency).
- Announce your participation! This can be a blog post (or if you don’t have a blog – Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Booklikes, Goodreads, Shelfari, etc.) If you want to list books you would like to read, that’s great, but not necessary.
- The challenge runs from December 19th 2015 through March 4th 2016.
- Link up!.Link that post (not just your blog homepage) to the linky at the event sign up post.
Review & Link Reviews! Your review may be on your blog, Goodreads, Shelfari, Booklikes, etc. Link the review to the Review Linky (will go live December 19th). The hosts will randomly pick three review links to win a $10 gift card to Amazon or Barnes & Noble. All links must be entered by March 5, 2015 at 11:59 PM EST. - Visit Each Other, Chat & Have Fun!
There will also be Twitter parties (dates to be announced), an Instagram photo challenge, and daily events in the Facebook group.
I'm not going to attempt to list books here; I have too many choices. :D As for a goal, I haven't decided yet. I'll post my results every month in my monthly challenge wrap up. I also have a goodreads shelf for COYER but it does include previous COYER challenge books.
Now go sign up and read those ebooks!

I love COYER because it motivates me to read and review. I'm aiming for 12 books this round but I hope I will make a bigger dent than that.
ReplyDeleteIt is motivational. :) Good luck and have fun!
DeleteI am so excited for this COYER, nice and relaxed :) You just reminded me that I have to create a Goodreads shelf for COYER! Good Luck with the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI'm excited too. Is it December 19th yet? :D
DeleteCOYER time again. It's funny, I used to never read e- books, now I've got quite a few. Good time to start cleanin' em out. :)
ReplyDelete:) At least, unlike print books, they don't get dusty or take up space. :) Have fun!
DeleteThis sounds like a good challenge to be a part of. It is always good to get through those e reads right?
ReplyDeleteYes it is! This challenge always helps me whittle down my ebook TBR pile.
DeleteGlad you joining us again, I am sure it's going to be lots of fun! I couldn't make a list either as I am to moody when it comes to reading...lol.
ReplyDeleteLOL it'll be fun choosing randomly.
DeleteThis sounds like fun. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It is fun, and low pressure too.
DeleteOh, I'm glad you're doing COYER again! Seems like no matter how many books we get through, there are always plenty more to make COYER a necessity!
ReplyDeleteSo true! I swear they breed on our ereaders, lol.
DeleteI'm excited to be participating. I think my biggest challenge will be remembering to link my reviews! Haha Good luck with the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI have that problem too. :D
DeleteThe cutoff is March 2016 not March 2015 yes? Just checking...
ReplyDeleteHah, I didn't even see that.I assume that was a typo on the part of the challenge host and that it's 2016, not 2015. :)
