2020 I Spy......Challenge

This challenge is a scavenger hunt of sorts. But it's not items on the book cover you will be looking for.....it's words in the title or series name of the book!

The Goal:
Read 25 books in 2020 that fit the tasks using the book titles or series names as your guide.



The Guidelines:
Below are 25 tasks.
You have all of 2020 to find 25 books whose titles or series names fit each of the tasks.
One book title or series name for each task, with each book being used only once.
You can use your imagination and a loose interpretation of the task, or be more literal. It's up to you!
Feel free to join the challenge any time during the year. As long as the books were read in 2020, you can go ahead and backdate.
There are no minimum page requirements
Rereads are allowed
Have fun with it!

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

This challenge is a scavenger hunt of sorts. But it's not items on the book cover you will be looking for.....it's words in the title or series name of the book!

The Go..."
Oh Wow! I really like this and believe I can do it. I really want to do this, but, I have a few ARC's to read. I realize I can probably use the titles with this fun challenge.
