The short answer is it’s a fun event to get people to read more sapphic books!
The challenge runs from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. You can join at any point during the 365-day span just by picking up a book and starting to read.
To promote the widest variety of women-loving-women stories, the IHS team has selected 50 categories, ranging from age-gap romance to sci-fi, and everything in between.
When you finish reading the book, submit it here to get one entry into the end-of-the-year prize drawings. More on that below.
You can only submit one book per category until you have submitted a book for each of the fifty categories. After that, you may continue to submit books in any categories you wish. There is no limit to the number of books you can enter after reaching the 50-category threshold.
IHS will feature one category each week (50 weeks in total) and will share a list of book suggestions on our website. Some of them will even be on sale! You are in no way obligated to read only the books we showcase. As long as a book fits a category, that works!
You are not required to read a book during the week the category is featured. We do this to showcase the categories, but you can read a category at any time during the year.
