Tanaz Masaba (tanazmasaba) | 46 comments I plan on doing this challenge a little differently in the sense that I may not read all the prompts. I am also not going to read a different book for each prompt--the way I see it, if one book fits more than one prompt then those other prompts have already been completed.

Tanaz Masaba (tanazmasaba) | 46 comments Reading update 1/1:

Finished Perfect by Cecelia Ahern, thus finishing the Flawed duology. It was an okay read--I felt like if it would have been more memorable if it wasn't written so plainly.

Finished The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. Excellent book is excellent. Enough said,

Finished You by Caroline Kepnes. How was it? Erm...next question please

Finished The Midnight Star by Marie Lu and so completing The Young Elites trilogy. RECOMMENDED TO EVERY FANTASY LOVER. This series is amazing. But be prepared to cry. Be prepared to cry A LOT.

Overall progress: two series completed, two standalones read.
