Agnesieszka, please increase my goal to 5 books.
I didn't realize at first that I could finish all the prompts. Thank you!

Progress: 4/5"

Good for you! Done.

Congratulations!

Congratulations Jennifer & Janine!

Welcom Dani! No worries about the books many of us decide short-term or even look if those we wanted to read anyway fit any task for this challenge.

Thanks! I really thought I would give up on "Whte Lies", but I pushed through to finish this challenge :)"

Too bad you didn't like the book. I hope the next one will work out better for you.
I noticed most of your books are in French. Where are you from?

Congratulations Carmen & La_mariane!

Welcome Joey & no worries about joining late.

That's unfortunate but on the other hand you get at least two more book knocked off Mt. TBR. Luckily for me I have plenty of short and very short non-fiction & recoomendation I can use for Words of Affirmation if any of those I have in mind won't work.

If you need a short recommendation The Autobiography of @ was one of my favorites last year and if I won't find anything else with an unusual character before end of November I'll re-read it for the favorite prompt from past PopSugar challenges.

Congratulations!

You're the 2nd or 3rd person that enjoyed/recommended The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend - I think I'll give it a try later this this - even if I usually don't enjoy Scandinavian literature very much.

Congratulations!
I'm glad you're enjoying it.

I thoroughly enjoyed 100 Days of Sunlight. And I can count it in the 2020 Popsugar Reading Challenge too."

Are you using it for the prompt 'A book with a character with a vision impairment or enhancement (a nod to 20/20 vision)' or the 'A book written by an author in their 20s' - she looks rather young? I looked at the blurb to see if I can figure out the prompt but now I decided I want give it a try if I see it on sale. Thank you for the recommendation.

Welcome Melissa

Lisa wrote: "Question: do ARCS count as gifts (for prompt 1) or does it have to be from a person? .....I mean, publishers/authors are people too but I digress... you get my point, I hope :D"

Since the author/publisher expects a review in exchange for the free copy it's not really a gift. Though if you don't find anything else at all I'll accept it.

This sounds great! I could give it a try. I'm not really getting into the ebook right now and I've seen the link to this reading in my book :-)
