This year I'm participating in the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge for 2019 (you can see the prompt list in my 2019 Reading Challenge Overview post or on the popsugar.com website). Here are my thoughts on the 3rd and 4th books that I've read this year. Book 3:  Norse Mythology  by Neil Gaiman I gave this book 5/5 stars on Goodreads. The prompt I chose for this was "A Retelling of a Classic." I actually had a different book in mind for this prompt, but then someone pointed out to me that myths and legends are as classical as books get, and so I'll save that other book for another prompt. I've learned that I really, really love Norse Mythology. These stories and their retelling in this book are amazing. There were definitely a few that I tried to verbally put my own spin on to my boyfriend. I'm pretty sure he hasn't seen me be so excited about a book that I had to interrupt whatever he was trying to do at

I recently decided to follow the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge for 2019 (you can see the prompt list in my 2019 Reading Challenge Overview post or on the popsugar.com website), and wanted to give some thoughts on the books that I'm reading for it this year. Some of these books will be outside of my comfort zone, and some will be books I would've read with or without the challenge. So without further ado, here are my thoughts on the 2nd book that I've read this year. Book 2: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald The Original Screenplay  by JK Rowling I gave this book 3/5 stars on Goodreads. The prompt I chose for this was "A book that makes you feel nostalgic." I grew up on the Harry Potter books and movies, and I love that there's new books and movies still coming out from the Harry Potter universe. Granted, I don't get dressed up as Luna anymore to go to the midnight releases, but it does make me remember the days that I did. I

I recently shared that I'm participating in the 2019 Pop Sugar Reading Challenge this year. I'm super excited to read books in more genres and styles, and from authors I wouldn't normally have picked out for myself (as well as some of my more traditional choices). I'll be sharing my thoughts on the books I read throughout the year, and what prompt I read them for. (For a list of the prompts, please see my 2019 Reading Challenge Overview post, or check out the list on popsugar.com) Here are my thoughts on the first book that I read in 2019: Book 1: The Brotherband Chronicles: Slaves of Socorro by John Flanagan I gave this book 3/5 stars on goodreads. I had been reading the  Brotherband Chronicles  series in 2018. I really wanted to read this book since it was the next one in the series, but needed to find a prompt that fit it. Thank you prompt, "Your favorite prompt from a prior year". There were so many prompts from 2018 that fit this book, and

This year, in order to broaden my reading horizons, I've decided to take part in the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge for 2019. The challenge offers prompts of different types of books to read throughout the year. Over the course of this year, I'll share what books I've been reading for the challenge, and what my thoughts are for each of the books. Below, I've included images of all of the prompts from the Pop Sugar website for anyone that is interested in joining the challenge!
