First reading challenge

Okay this is a first for me... I enjoy spending lots of time sitting somewhere cosy, whether curled up in bed, on the lounge, outdoors under the shade of a tree with my head in a great book but this is the first time I have joined a reading challenge and blogged about it. I had seen this challenge on a website http://megancstroup.blogspot.com.au I visited this blog after doing a search on a title I thought about reading but forgot about the title I was looking for a recommendation on and discovered more titles to add to my list... After reading the latest entry I thought I could join this challenge... so I compiled my list and came up with these :

5 points: Read a book that has between 100 and 200 pages. Animal Farm - George Orwell
10 points: Read a debut book by any author. (The book does not have to be a 2015 debut.) Divergent - Veronica Roth
10 points: Read a book that does not take place in your current country of residence.  Outside the lines- Amy Hatvany
10 points: Read a book that someone else has already used for the challenge. — Submitted by SCSBC15 finisher Kristen @ See You in a Porridge.... TBA
15 points: Read a book published under a pseudonym (e.g. Robert Galbraith, Sara Poole, J.D. Robb, Franklin W. Dixon, Mark Twain, etc.). — Submitted by SCSBC15 finisher Megan M. The Silkworm- Robert Galbraith
15 points: Read a book with “boy,” “girl,” “man” or “woman” in the title (or the plural of these words).  It's raining men- Milly Johnson
15 points: Read a book with a one-word title (e.g. Attachments, Americanah, Uglies, Wild, etc.).  Room- Emma Donoghue
20 points: Read a book with a person's first and last name in the title (e.g. The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry, The Story of Edgar Sawtelle).  The storied life of Aj Fikry- Gabrielle Levin
20 points: Read a food-themed book. — Submitted by SCSBC15 finisher Jamie @ Whatever I Think Of!  Scones and sensibility - Lindsay Eland
20 points: Read a book with a verb in the title. (For any grammar nerds out there, I mean “verb” in the most general sense, so gerunds count. For non-grammar-inclined people, just use any book that appears to have a verb in the title!) If I Stay - Gayle Foreman
30 points: Read two books with the same title (by different authors). — Submitted by SCSBC15 finisher bevchen @ Confuzzledom.  One summer - David Baldacci and One Summer - Bill Bryson
30 points: Read a nonfiction book and a fiction book about the same subject (e.g. a biography and historical fiction novel about the same person; two books about a specific war or event; a nonfiction book about autism and a novel with a character who has autism, etc. The possibilities are endless!). Thinking in Pictures: my life with autism - Temple Grandin and House Rules - Jodi Piccoult

The challenge starts November 1st and I will be giving monthly updates on my progress!! I can't wait to start!!
