I am juggling three challenges this year: This one, the Around the Year in 52 Books challenge (also prompt-based), and the Mount TBR challenge, which is all about decimating the existing pile of unread books.I have tried to fill all the prompts with books from my TBR and will not count the same book for both prompt-based challenges, at the expense that I may not finish one, or both. But I definitely want to avoid buying new books I don't really want for the sole purpose of filling a prompt for one of the challenges. I did manage to find something for almost every prompt here, though, so I expect to do fine. But I have never handled two different prompt-based challenges before and will just have to see how it goes.
By special request I am adding the English edition and the back-translated titles for books I am reading in a language other than English (if they're not a direct translation anyway). It's always fun to see what translators and publishers around the world make of titles ... and I should know, because I am a translator myself^^

I've still got some blanks - I'm (hopefully) going to wait until some other challenges I want to do are posted, and see if I can fill the empty slots with some of the books I choose for them. For others I have several suggestions, so I may wait and see what I feel like (and what's available from the library) at the time. I am going a bit rogue this year, and tweaking some of the challenges where I don't have something on my shelves that fits - because my priority is to reduce the size of my TBR shelf, more than completing a challenge.AA = Australian author
