After the last reading challenge 2018, I’m actually quite excited to see what’s the reading challenge going to be for 2019. I didn’t expect to complete the whole list for 2018 but it did help me get started and improved my reading list. Similarly, I hope I can do even better for 2019 with this challenge.
Let’s recap what I have read for 2018:
- A book made into movie that you’ve already seen: Mortal Instruments: City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
- The next book in a series you started: Shadow’s Claim by Kresley Cole
- Nordic Noir: The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
- True Crime: Spam Nation by Brian Kreb
- A book with your favorite color in the title: Violets Are Blue by James Patterson
For this year 2019, I’m going to aim to do better than 2018. Since I did only 5 books last year, doing a six in 2019 will be great improvement. Haha!
- A book you meant to read in 2018 – A book with a female author who uses a make pseudonym (thanks to the reader who recommended this book but unfortunately I didn’t get to read in 2018 so here’s what I’m going to do in 2019): The Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert Galbraith
- A book recommended by a celebrity you admire: Educated by Tara Westover (I have started reading it and it’s quite good. After all, it’s recommended by Bill Gates!!!)
- Your favorite prompt from a past POPSUGAR reading challenge – The next book in a series you started: Brown-Eyed Girl by Lisa Kleypas (the 4th book in Travis series which is one of my favorite series from Lisa Kleypas)
Other than these, I still have a few books in my to-read list but I don’t think they fit in any prompt for the reading challenge:
- Billion Dollar Whale by Tom Wright
- Every Day by David Levithan
- Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah Harari
- Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole
I know I won’t be able to finish all these listed here today but I would still like to hear your recommendations, if you have any good ones in your list. Thank you.
