Has anyone tips to try and find a book that is published on your birthday? I'm trying to find anything, but it's pretty hard. My birthday is 20 January btw.
Yes! I found the trick! I googled mine, "books published in february"...most often a Goodreads link will come up from the "lists" ....every book in that list was coming up with the same dates, so when i scrolled through the calendars on my phone i found, for example, 2017, the dates that kept coming up in the "books published in February" list always fell on a Tuesday or Thursday so I found a year where my birthday fell on a Tuesday, I searched for books "published in February 2013" and viola! I found several ! It takes time to click on them all to find your date but you will eventually find one. Sooo, I looked up yours and Jan 20 falls on a Tuesday in 2015 and then I googled "books published in January 2015", clicked on a Goodreads link "most popular books published in January 2015" and clicked each one till I found one for the 20th. Here is one.....https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Now you try! Your birthday will fall on a Tuesday again in 2009....etc....Click till you find something you would want to read!
Thank you very much Erin! I'm gonna do a good search :)
Sooo, I searched and searched and searched and couldn't find anything that was affordable, would like to read or was on my birthday. So I decided I would do a book that is published in the same month. I read The art of being normal by Lisa Williamson. This book was amazing and gave it 5 stars.
Nothing Gold Can Stay by Ron Rash, 3 StarsPublished Feb 19
This is a book of short stories taking place along the southern half of the Appalachian Mountain trail spanning the decades. I live in the northern half so this caught my interest of the choices I had for this date. Overall enjoyable.
Autoboyography by Christina Lauren. 4 stars
