Just like in every competition, there are some rules that must be followed. We don't want this to be chaos, do we? The rules are simple and you'll be asked to follow all of them. We will check.

Judges

RULES & REQUIREMENTS
• Follow this account

TASKS
• Judge your assigned books of the genre you pick before the deadline
• You must read at least 10-15 chapters from each book unless it's a short story or poetry (if the chapters are very short then read a few more so you can get a general idea of the book)
