Is there any particular genres you like or dislike for recs?
Everyone - There is a task for reading "A book recommended by someone else taking the Popsugar Reading Challenge" so if you have recs for people this is a great place to post them!
Also, if you see a book that is mentioned in another book, this would be a great place to note that too.
Any other questions or recommendations needed, just ask!

A..."
I'm joining in too Kaley so You're free to look through my shelves as well to find anything you need to complete the challenges, also I could probably come up with a few recs for you. :)

My original Goal for the year was 40 books but I'm going to see if maybe I can get more!! I'd love to complete this challenge and then some, but we'll see how it goes!
Question: For the Nordic Noir does it have to be an actual Scandinavian/Swedish/Nordic book/author... or does a book from the view point of a US FBI agent count as well?

Thanks! I have two questions.
1. For the task where you read a book that someone else doing the challenge recommends, does that mean while going through comments you can select a book that someone read for one of their tasks. Or does that mean someone has to personally recommend a book?
2. This is my first year doing this, so could you please explain what reading a book from your favorite prompt from previous years means?
Thanks and sorry to bother you guys.

For the task where you read a book that someone else doing the challenge recommends, I would say that they need to actually recommend it because they may read a book for the challenge that they didn't like and would not recommend. I would think that if no one post recommendations here, you could probably just go to the bookshelf of someone else doing the challenge and read a book that they rated 5 stars. I'm pretty sure that anyone would recommend something they found to be a 5 star read. Feel free to browse my shelves if you like.
For the previous years prompts, you need to choose a task to complete from a previous Popsugar challenge. You can use the following links to go to the previous challenges and see what the tasks were.
Previous Popsugar Reading Challenges:
2015
2016
2017
Also, there are a few references in the 3rd post of this thread for a few of the tasks. Feel free to check those out too.

So far, these are the titles:
Delta of Venus
Affinity
Tipping the Velvet
I haven't read any of them, so I cannot recommend them, but they fit the task for a book mentioned in another book.

I took a quick look and compared books. I only saw one book on your TBR that I had read and you hadn't. I'll think of a few books I enjoyed and recheck your read shelf when I have a bit more time.



Moloka'i
The Serpent King
Never Let You Go
Wonder Woman: Warbringer
Bull Mountain
A Curious Beginning
The Kitchen House
The Trophy Child
Matilda
Before We Were Yours
Small Great Things
All the Bright Places
Between Shades of Gray
The Opposite of Everyone
I tried to include several different genres.

If i were recommending a book these would feature
And the Band Played On: Politics, People, and the AIDS Epidemic
Sophie's World
Between the World and Me
The Music Shop
For easy reads i love the greek village series by Sara Alexi
and any Agatha Christie
ETA i have shelves named favourites and top twenty any book on those shelves would make a great read

The Illegal
Any Known Blood
I Know This Much Is True
The Hour I First Believed
Slaughterhouse-Five
Deadeye Dick
Tess of the D'Urbervilles
The Flute Player


We have a few people that have the same names doing the challenge, so I tried to identify at least one of you with something added to your name. Also, I noticed our two Nicoles are both from Canada, but I used that as an identifier for one of you. If anyone would like to change or add an identifier, just let me know.

Shamber, I totally forgot about "Dragonfly in Amber" Lol! I was in the middle of that one and forgot all about it! Guess I should finish that one before I start "Voyager! But, what I've read of Dragonfly is really goo. I've been enjoying the series a lot even if it has taken me over a year to get through 1.5 of the books. It's a big investment with each book being about 1000 pages!
