      1. What are you reading for this category?
American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins - 5 stars!
2. Why did you choose this book?
I've heard a lot about it and when I finished it, I tried to look for a prompt where it would fit.
      Circles and interconnecting lines led me to choose Cure: A Journey into the Science of Mind Over Body by Jo Marchant for this geometric prompt from my TBR list.
    
      What are you reading for this category?The Museum of Modern Love, by Heather Rose
Why did you choose this book?
The cover has a geometric design
      I read Red Clocks by Leni Zumas
The cover has a geometric design, but it was a very odd book. I don't recommend it.
      1. What are you reading for this category? I read What are the Blind Men Dreaming? by Noemi Jaffe
2. Why did you choose this book? I had a number of books with geometric patterns but when it came right down to it, this one was higher up on my priority list to read.
      I had a hard time coming up with a book for this prompt, but looking at the listopia, I realized 
  
 would work. I really enjoyed this book although I was a bit confused some of the time trying to piece all of it together.
    
      1. What are you reading for this category? The Fire This Time: A New Generation Speaks About Race2. Why did you choose this book? All of the lines form a pattern. I've been wanting to read this book since I read The Fire Next Time a few years ago.
      I read Turbo Twenty-Three by Janet Evanovich. I try to fit in a Stephanie Plum every year, for some easy, happy reading, and I think the lines on this cover count as a geometric pattern:
    
        
      1. Well, this was a struggle to find, but what I've come up with - looking at the article Emily posted - is this
  
Simple, clean lines; limited, contrasting colours; repeating pattern in the wreath.
2. Mainly because I couldn't fit the other books was thinking of (Recursion, The Things I Would Tell You
) into any of the prompts from the other challenges I do. However, if I do find a home for either of them, I'll probably swap out.

      1. What are you reading for this category?I read How Should One Read a Book? (by Virginia Woolf)
2. Why did you choose this book?
This was one of the harder prompts for me. I was going to use Power of Habit but used it for another prompt. I got this new edition of a classic through netgalley and realized the cover was geometric.
      Wow I was having a really hard time with this one, until I found this book that I won from goodreads. It's gorgeous in person.The Hidden Girl and Other Stories
    
      I chose The Boy in the Striped Pajamas for this prompt. To be honest, I am behind on the challenge and was looking for something on the shorter side and this fit the bill. It was on my tbr for awhile as well.
