One Enchanted Evening Challenge

I really liked this challenge idea, and I would like to give it a try! I told my sister about this challenge, too. I'll be doing this with her, and I think she's in this group too. Here goes!

1. Where will you be going? I will go to Brick Lane, London. So I'll be reading Brick Lane by Monica Ali.

2. What will you wear? I wil wear a suit and a cap, like on my cover of The Hound of the Baskervilles, where Sherlock Holmes is wearing that. (not sure about the Goodreads cover though) (DONE)

3. Who will you bring with you? I will bring my sister of course, but for this challenge we decided to bring at least two different characters from different books, so we'll go with Harry August of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August and A.J Fikry of The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry.

4. What will you do? We will watch a movie! Night Film by Marisha Pessl, to be exact.

5. How will you get there? We will get there by car. I looked for a book I own showing a car on the cover, and my e-book version of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald has a car on it. I've actually been wanting to read this book for a while, so I'm glad I'll finally be able to get to it.

6. What will you eat? I will eat pasta, as shown on the cover of Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (at least I think it's pasta). I'm really happy I got to include non-fiction in my challenge too! My sister and I wanted to include either a non-fiction book or a graphic novel, and I'm in a more non-fiction mood. :)

I don't know if I'll complete the challenge in two months, since I'm not the fastest reader, but my sister and I loved the idea and we're looking forward to the challenge!
