Where does this book fit?

Firefly Lane would work for a book that deals with grief.

Could Change Everything is a song lyric from Collide by Sleeping Wolf.

Several people have agreed that insects, including fireflies, count for the animal prompt.

Does anyone have an idea for where to fit Under the Volcano by Malcolm Lowry? I've already used the prompts for country that fascinates you and for anti-hero...

Could anyone suggest where The Secret Garden could fit in this years prompts? I already have one for childhood classic!

[Kacey]

1. A book made into a movie you've already seen. 7. A book set in a country that fascinates you (if it does) 13. A book that is also a stage play or musical 31. A book mentioned in another book 33. A childhood classic you've never read 37. A book you meant to read in 2017 but didn't get to.

Also it could maybe fit with 40. Your favorite prompt from the 2015, 2016, or 2017 POPSUGAR Challenges

Those are all I can think of but there might be more

If it was recommended by anyone it could fulfill that prompt or if you saw someone else reading it

There is a Bruce Springsteen song called Secret Garden and those words are in the lyrics.

Ooohhhh. Thank you for that. I just saw the movie and wanted to read this but had almost all my prompts filled for the year except this one. Thanks!

Maybe mental health due to the struggles of the daughter?

[charlie ₊˚⊹☆]

hi! i’m not sure if these have been asked before, i can’t find any place where they’re mentioned so i figured i’d ask. where would i fit:
-wild beauty by anna marie mclemore
-holding up the universe by jennifer niven
-ship of the dead by rick riordan
i already have a few prompts filled so if there are multiple suggestions for prompts then please hit me with them ha ha! and i’ve already read the books so no worries about spoilers. thanks!

Haven't read any of those but going by the summaries/what I've heard about them in passing:

Wild Beauty - #12, "LGBTQ+ protagonist", #14 "author of a different ethnicity" (if you are not Latinx)

Holding Up the Universe - #10, "about death or grief", maybe Advanced #9, "about a problem facing society"

Ship of the Dead - #3, "next book in a series", #25 "set at sea", #27 "set on a different planet" (maybe - the different realms of Norse mythology could technically count) #35 "past Goodreads Choice Awards winner"

[Trish]

Does anyone have an idea for a spot for The Rosie Project?

[Crumb]

Any ideas for the book The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin?

[Cendaquenta]

Crumb wrote: "Any ideas for the book The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin?"

Ooooh boy, that could fulfil a lot.

#10 "about death or grief", #14 "author of different ethnicity" (if you are not Black), #27 "set on a different planet"

Prompts which are more "maybes":
#12, "LGBTQ+ protagonist" (view spoiler)[I don't remember Essun's specific orientation, but Alabaster, who is/becomes almost a co-protagonist, is gay, there's a bi secondary character, a polyamorous relationship, and a major secondary character who is a trans woman. (hide spoiler)], Advanced #6 "an allegory", Advanced #9 "about a problem in society" (heavy themes of racism, slavery, institutionalized bigotry and abuse), and Advanced #10 "recommended by someone else doing Popsugar" because I would most certainly recommend it.

[Crumb]

Thank you so much!

[Dorothy]

Any ideas for The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?

[Ellie]

I'm not 100% convinced the Broken Earth trilogy *is* set on a different planet. But I guess it's how you interpret it. I used the third book in the trilogy for an allegory. I'd also recommend it!

[Heather]

Dorothy wrote: "Any ideas for The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?"

There aren't a ton of prompts for this book. Set in a country that fascinates you? It's an allegory. I seem to recall this one being a bestseller a long time after it was published. If all else fails, I'll recommend this book to you. I loved it!

[Naina]

Does anyone have any ideas for where I can slot in The Pisces? I've already read a book for the book published in 2018 prompt, and that's the only one I can think of for this book too.

[Naina]

Trish wrote: "Does anyone have an idea for a spot for The Rosie Project?"

It came out in 2013 -- did you graduate HS that year? It could work for that. It would also work for a prompt from the 2017 challenge -- a book with a character's name.

Can the Broken Earth trilogy Book #1 be considered an allegory?

[Johanne]

@Naina, pisces is latin for fish (plural), so maybe animal in the title?

[Reyna]

Trish wrote: "Does anyone have an idea for a spot for The Rosie Project?"

I read this for a book recommended by someone else taking the PopSugar Reading Challenge, recommended in the original forum thread.

[Ian]

A Tale for the Time Being, anyone?

[Ian]

Kai wrote: "I would really like to read something from the Discworld Series, preferably starting with the first (The Colour of Magic?) would this fit in to any of the prompts? Thank you!"

A Book Set on Another Planet, would be the easiest fit for it.

[Nikky]

The colour of magic is also a film xx

[Nikky]

A tale for the time being could be a problem facing society- bullying

[Rebecca]

My mother is very adamant that I “read” (we share an audible account) “Little Fires Everywhere” but I have so many prompts pre chosen and have no idea where it could fit. Any thoughts?

[Leanne]

I have several books on my to read list and I'm hoping I can use them to tick off some prompts but I'm not sue where they might fit. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
-Uglies
-The Atlantis Gene
-Elijah's Mermaid
-Ashes
-Fire Spell
-The Home Corner
-The Lightning Thief
-Lady Midnight

Well, for what it's worth I can recommend [book:The Lightning Thief|28187]. I've seen complaints about it,but I thought it was a fun book and pretty well written.

Lady Midnight has a time of day in the title, but I'm not really familiar with most of the books on the list to have many ideas.

[Carol]

I have it under "A past Goodreads Choice Winner"

I would recommend [book:Uglies|24770] in a heartbeat, but I also feel like I vaguely (it's been 10+ years since I read it) that there's an LGBT secondary character, although not the protagonist. I know there's also a prompt from one of the last three years about dystopian fiction, as well as one for a trilogy, which would fit in "Uglies" as well.

[Johanne]

One could argue that Uglies works as a book about a problem facing society today, in the way that dystopias are often a criticism or comment on temporary society. And so is Uglies.

[monica gaither]

I used it for an author with a different ethnicity then you.

Where would Red Rising fit?

[Ian]

Crumb wrote: "Where would Red Rising fit?"

Favorite Color?
A Book Recommended to You (Because that may be my favortie dystopian series of all time - I have Iron Gold for my "Book Published in 2018")
A GoodReads Choice Award Winner (2014)
You could find half a dozen ways to fit it in for "Favorite Prompt from 2015 - 2017"
If I remember correctly, it might work for a "Book Involving a Heist"
A Book Set on a Different Planet
A Book with Alliteration in the Title
I think it also might work for a "Book with Characters who are Twins"

[Nadine in NY]

I've got Red Rising pencilled in as my "past Goodreads Choice winner" and of course it's also set on another planet.

[Sarah Folkening Harbour]

Hey all, I am interested in reading The Hike, and was wondering if anyone has read it and what prompt it could fall into! Thanks in advance! :)

I also recommend Uglies, that kicks off my favorite dystopian series. I agree that it can also be used for problems facing society today.

The Lightning Thief has a weather element in the title, or it could be a book made into a movie you've already seen,

Lady Midnight has a time of day in the title.

If you are fascinated by Antarctica, then The Atlantis Gene can fit that prompt.

Elijah's Mermaid has a set of twins in it, according to the reviews on this book.

Based on the description, it sounds as if The Home Corner may qualify as a book about mental health.

If you don't find anywhere else to fit it, there are plenty of songs with Ashes in the lyrics.

I read it last year, and I think you could count it as an allegory. There is another prompt that I think it qualifies for, but telling you would be a spoiler. Have you been meaning to read it since last year, by any chance?

[Crumb]

Thank you, Nadine and Ian!!

[Bhavna]

Where would The immortal life of Henrietta Lacks fit? Thanks
