Bookopoly – Birthday Edition

It’s my birthday month and I wanted to put a bookopoly board together that celebrates another year but keeps it as neutral as possible so others can use this for their birthday month.

If it is not your birthday month but you want to try a Bookopoly board, click here to see previous months.

The Bookopoly Board

The Rules

Like always, I would suggest using two dice. There is only one rule, to add a roll each time you pass Go!

The Prompts…

  • For the Two Income Spaces, we instead have a 30-day buying ban and a 100-day buying ban.
  • The two utility properties are the oldest and newest books on your TBR.
  • Instead of Stations, we are instead, travelling around the UK, or across the world. I use Hiveword’s Random Places Generator to generate a place in the UK or somewhere in the world (whichever you land on). Then you can pick a book set there or by an author from there.
  • Instead of Chance cards, we have Social Choice. You can play this in two ways. You could either scroll through the feed of the social media app you’ve landed on until you come across a book already on your physical TBR. Or, you can scroll until the first book you come across
  • Instead of Community Chest cards, I decided to go with Book Clubs. There are so many online book clubs, some also meet up in person! I picked Goodreads, BOOKCLUBS, and Meetup. You pick a book club and read their chosen book that month. This may encourage readers to join book clubs and find more book friends.
  • All the other prompts are self-explanatory but please reach out if you want more guidance.

You can download your copy with the rules and prompts below…

And that is the Birthday Edition of Bookopoly. I would love to know if it’s also your birthday month! and what you have picked from the prompts.

So comment below or find me on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest for more.

As always, thanks for reading…
