29. A book about or set on Halloween Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (The first major event occurs during the Halloween Feast and there's the whole bit about Nearly Headless Nick's Death Day/Party so I'm counting it for this!) completed 3/25/2018

38. A book with an ugly cover The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini ⭐️ completed 2/3/2018 I DON'T RECOMMEND - while I really enjoyed A Thousand Splendid Suns ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I REALLY did NOT enjoy the Kite Runner at all...it was a DNF from about 6 months ago that I picked up and finished for the purposes of this prompt because I really had nothing else that I thought had an ugly cover and I figured maybe the ending would be better because it generally has great ratings....I was wrong...hype isn't everything!
39. A book that involves a bookstore or library Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell ⭐️⭐️⭐️ completed 6/15/2018
40. Your favorite prompt from the 2015, 2016, or 2017 POPSUGAR Reading Challenges:

8. A microhistory Who Killed the Avro Arrow? by Chris Gainor ⭐️ completed 7/24/2018 - I'm not sorry that I read this book as I now have a greater appreciation for the history of my local area and other Canadian issues however, I was very frustrated at the structure of this book (not chronological), found that it was very long-winded and repetitive, and was full of dry details. I probably would have it enjoyed it much more at half the length.

10. A book recommended by someone else taking the POPSUGAR Reading Challenge Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ completed 6/21/2018

Books I DNF during the process of this challenge:
-The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett
I just really wasn't in the mood for something not written in modern english and I found myself slogging through it for a while. I tried audiobook & ebook but I couldn't stay interested in either. May try again later if the mood strikes.

-An American Marriage by Tayari Jones
If you've read the synopsis, you already know 99% of the plot. Also parts of this book were just in really poor taste (I'm not referring to the main story I'm refering to tidbits that were just uncalled for). Ex: "going to buy a fish sandwich from the muslims" when there is no further narration of the sandwich or her experience buying it. I felt it just served to add to an unnecessary stereotype. Ex: "I don't want him to know history so that he doesn't feel like he owes anyone". I'm pretty sure we should all be grateful to the vets who laid down their lives for our freedom who didn't expect anything from individuals in return!

My Already Read and Plan to Reads so far:

1. A book made into a movie you've already seen - Red Sparrow (the movie isn't out yet, but this is my book for the prompt. It's on my TBR stack)

3. The next book in a series you started Hellbent. Book 3 of the Orphan X series. √

5. Nordic noir The Snowman (this is an ongoing read -- I'm honestly not enjoying it, but I'm too far into it to give up, so I go back to it between other books)

13. A book that is also a stage play or musical: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts One and Two (Because, yes, I DO have tickets to see it!)

17. A book you borrowed or that was given to you as a gift: What She Ate: Six Remarkable Women and the Food That Tells Their Stories √

20. A book by a local author Dark in Death √

21. A book with your favorite color in the title: Blue Moon Rising (I don't have a favorite color, but I like the color blue, and I wanted to read this one anyway).

35. A past Goodreads Choice Awards winner: The Hidden Oracle √

40. Your favorite prompt from the 2015, 2016, or 2017 POPSUGAR Reading Challenges (First book of a series not read before): City of the Lost √

Challenge Prompts:

5. A book with a fruit or vegetable in the title: An Apple for the Creature √

Lucky you! I went to London to watch it last summer with my 3 kids (9, 14, 17 yrs). We all loved the play - even the 9-year-old, who was 8 at the time and not a native English speaker.

[Erin]

Lucky kids you have! Our tickets aren't for a while still -- it was difficult getting three tickets together, and we weren't going without the kiddo :-)

[Johanne]

Yes - I bought ours a year in advance and sat with 3 computers on the day they released a new batch of tickets to enhance my chances. We were lucky it worked out :)
