Hibernate with a good book

Why limit yourself to Buzzword Bingo in this time of perpetual Zoom meetings?

Hibernate with a Good Book is Maxwell’s Winter Reading Challenge in the form of a Bingo card.

Use the links below to get to the cards and instructions and print them out. Then read books in the categories on the card, and mark the boxes. When you’ve completed a row, column, or diagonal, turn your card in at Maxwell.

One entry per person, please. Entries due by April 1.

Update: To print the Bingo cards out within the Chrome browser, you may have to adjust the print size.

In the Print dialogue, click on More settings to expand the section. Under Scale, choose either Fit to paper or Fit to printable area.

You should then be able to hit Print and have the card print out on 1 page.
