152458 Happy Thanksgiving to anyone who celebrates!!

This week, I finished reading my 50th book of the year, which was Circle of Shadows. I started it back in February and finally finished it. I used it as one of the books for the prompt of my favourite prompts from past years, for the 2015 prompt - a book written by a woman.

I'm now reading Neil Patrick Harris: Choose Your Own Autobiography for the choose your own adventure prompt and I'm loving it!! It's a really fun book. I'm also reading Girls of Storm and Shadow, which I'm enjoying but not as much as the first book.

QotW: Books have literally changed my life. They gave me something to look forward to, when I was growing up as a big Harry Potter fan.

152458 I hope this one counts, as I have it on my TBR:

Feminists Don't Wear Pink (And Other Lies) Amazing Women on What the F-Word Means to Them by Scarlett Curtis

This is what I do! I will also read a book for a prompt from each of the past challenges.

152458 Lauren James has a master in Chemistry in Physics, so her books would fit this prompt. I recommend The Loneliest Girl in the Universe

152458 Looking forward to the Hunger Games prequel
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (The Hunger Games, #0) by Suzanne Collins

152458 Suzanne wrote: "This book came out just a few weeks ago: I Am C-3PO: The Inside Story which is more to my taste than fantasy/science fiction."

C-3PO is my favourite Star Wars character so I definitely want to read this book!

152458 I think I'm going to wait for the results of the Goodreads Choice Awards and then read one of the winners for this prompt.

I think I'm going to read this one as well, as it's already on my TBR.
