2019 Reading Challenge - Overview

-
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!

2019 Reading Challenge Reviews - Books 23 & 24

I'm really loving the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge. It's been helping me with a couple of reading related things I struggled with in the past. First, it's helping me always have a next book ready to read, so that I haven't hit a point so far this year where I don't know what to read next and end up reading nothing for a few weeks. Second, and perhaps more importantly, it's been helping me broaden my reading horizons and read books that I wouldn't normally have read. Many of these have been really interesting, and I'm so glad I took the time to check them out. For more information on the challenge, check out my Overview post, or visit the Pop Sugar website. Book 23:  The Friday Night Knitting Club  by Kate Jacobs I gave this book 3/5 stars on Goodreads. The prompt I chose for this was "A book about a hobby" This book was recommended to me by other individuals who are participating in the challenge as well. I wasn&#

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 19th and 20th books that I've read this year. Book 19:  Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts.  by Bren é   Brown I gave this book 2/5 stars on Goodreads. The prompt I chose for this was "A Book by an author whose first and last names start with the same letter"  I'd heard amazing things about this book, and so when my sorority decided to read it for their book club I was excited to join in. The wait to get this book from the library was well over a month, and I took that as a good sign too that it was well loved and going to be a great book. Unfortunately, for me that was not the case. I love the occasional self-help or leadership book. When we find a good one, my boss and I recommend them to each other. I was hoping to be able to recommend this one to him, but sadly I found

2020 Reading Challenge Reviews - Books 1 & 2

Hello readers! Welcome to 2020! This year I've decided to do the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge again. You can find out more info on it on the Pop Sugar website or my Overview post from last year. I've also included the 2020 prompts in my '2020 Reading Challenge' post if you want to check those out.  This year I'm going to be doing things a little bit differently. I'm still going to review every book that I read, but I may not always include the prompt. This is because, with some of the prompts this year, I think as I read more books I may want to shift some of the books around from the prompt I intended for them to one that fits them better or if another prompt comes along that fits their initial prompt better, etc. I'm also not going to share every book I read on my instagram story this year, but will try to keep up with posting photos of them weekly so feel free to check that out if you're interested. :) Here are my book reviews for my
