Dewey Decimal Challenge

Description: Welcome one and all!

The Challenge: Read a book from every Dewey Decimal category.

This sounds like fun! How do I start? There's a list of the categories here. You can find the Dewey Decimal numbers of many books in the Details section of their LT Work page, and you can also add a Dewey Decimal column to your catalogue that will show the numbers from other people's catalogues if you don't have that data yourself. Then click "Post a new topic" and start listing what you've read!

I want more challenges like this! You may also be interested in the LC Classification Challenge.
