This year I am participating in 3 challenges hosted at Rick Mills' blog. His focus is on mysteries and fun ways to track them. I did them last year and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
I am also participating in the Medical Examiner challenge and the Beachcomber Bingo challenge.
Six Shooter 
The other fun tracking task is his Six Shooter Challenge. This one also involves reading mysteries. Each distinct author you read opens a new target for you. Then as you complete an additional book by that author you score an additional shot. Continue to score until you complete 6 shots for an author. You can start this challenge now as incomplete targets will carry to 2021.
