August 2015 Topics!
I'm excited for the maps one. Just spent like 20 minutes flipping through all my books to look and found some really great ones.
I don't own a lot of variety of maps... most of them are of Narnia and Middle Earth to be honest but it will still be fun to show them off!
Love the Required Reading topic. I get to reminisce about my childhood with books.
The required reading is going to be hard for me. I can only remember 3 books I had to read for school, and I hated all of them. :(

Yay I'm so excited for these topics! I accidentally did books tropes I "love to hate" this week so maybe I was just thinking ahead? Haha

Yeah, this will probably be a bit of a cheat topic for me haha :') I'll just have to make up for it with all the others!
Great topics! I too sort of did tropes I love to hate, so I will need to improvise or at least elaborate with examples.
The maps one will be interesting, I must delve into my books to find my favourites!
I just starting making booktube videos so I just joined the group but I'm so excited about this!! I can't wait for required reading, I've already picked them all out!
This might sound dumb but what does Tropes stand for?
Sara wrote: "This might sound dumb but what does Tropes stand for?"Tropes are basically common/recurring book motifs---some examples would be best friends falling in love, a nobody finding out they have magical powers and now needs to save the world, the love interest disappearing in book two of a YA series, characters who hate each other but have great tension, the wise-old man figure who gives wisdom to people (i.e. Gandalf, Dumbledore) etc. Hope this helps! :)
Oh dear god I read two books of my required reading and one was dutchlike even our required reading was pick a book you like from this list, and for english it was like; as long as it is ya or up your fine. how shall i do that one...

MAPS! I LIVE for maps! I'm really excited for these topics, I really struggled with last month's. These will be so much fun!
Oh man, that tropes I hate one is going to take A LOT to narrow down. I hate so many, it's not even funny.
I can't think of many books that have maps... this is going to be a hard one.
I'm on time! Woohoo!Here's mine: https://zezee112.wordpress.com/2015/0...
Such an awesome topic. I love maps.
Here's my top five favourite maps! I found this one much harder than I'd been expecting - I didn't realise what a little amount of books I'd read with maps in.
Here is my top three favourite maps because I only had this many :D http://aliyn89.blogspot.com/2015/08/t...

* Required reading is a book that you were assigned to read while you were in school. I'm from the USA, so for an example, that would be required reading anywhere from elementary school - college.
