Well, the year is a little more than halfway done, and I am happy to report that I’m a little more than halfway done with my reading challenge as well!
Already done are:
- a book you chose for the cover
- a book with a reputation for being un-put-down-able
- a book set somewhere you’ve never been but would like to visit
- a book about books or reading
- a book in a genre you usually avoid
- a book you were excited to buy or borrow but haven’t read yet
- a book that’s more than 600 pages
- a book of poetry, a play, or an essay collection
- a book of any genre that addresses current events
- an immigrant story
- three books by the same author
- a book by an #ownvoices or #diversebooks author
- a book with an unreliable narrator or ambiguous ending
- a book nominated for an award in 2017
So, what’s left for #mmdreading?
- a book you’ve already read
- a juicy memoir
- a book you don’t want to admit you’re dying to read
- a book in the backlist of a new favorite author
- a book recommended by someone with great taste
- a book about a topic or subject you already love
- a Newbery award winner or honor book
- a book in translation
- a book published before you were born
- a Pulitzer Prize or National Book Award winner
I have some ideas for where I’ll go with the remaining prompts, but suggestions are always welcome! If you’re participating in a reading challenge this year, how’s it going?
