I participated in this challenge in 2020. Although there are only 6 prompts, it took me until the end of the year to complete it. This challenge is hosted by Andrea @ Carolina Book Nook.
The rules:
- The challenge runs from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. You can sign up any time, but only count books that you read between those dates.
- Read a book in any format (hard copy, ebook, audio) with a title that fits into each category.
- Don’t use the same book for more than one category.
- Creativity for matching the categories is not only allowed, it’s encouraged!
- You can choose your books as you go or make a list ahead of time.
In 2021, choose 6 books that have titles that contain a: (Click on the links for more examples and info)

Thanks Susan. For some reason, this comment went to spam, very odd.

I just review them then connect the reviews to the webpage of the person who is hosting the challenge for others in the group to read and perhaps use for their own challenge.

I really need to just start reading it. I had it on my list for the Popsugar 2020 challenge and never got to it. I have heard good things about it, so I hope to get to it soon this year.

I have decided I’m going to participate in this literally just today so I need to think about a TBR for it.
