Em wrote: "For the "Read a book with song lyrics in the title" does the book have to be named after the song, or can it just be coincidental?"
what do you mean?
what do you mean?
I think that Em meant that do the song lyrics in the title have to be intentional. Like should it have to relate to the book, and be there for a reason, or can you choose a book that's title is for example "Renegades" and then there is a song called Renegades, or does it have to be like "Dear Evan Hansen"?
In simpler words, do the song lyrics in the title have to be relevant to the story, or can I just find a song that has the same lyrics as a book I want to read.
I don't know if this was helpful or not...

I have a question: usually, I read books translated, if I choose to participate I have to consider the original edition or the translated one for the challenge? (Often the cover is different, and so is the title)
Wait do you guys think that The Unexpected Everything counts as the main character is an author...

In my opinion, I would say the cover and title that YOU would be reading.

Thank you!
Sorry, another question, does this count as a book with “end” in the title?

The first half i found quite slow but the second half of the book definitely made up for it, i really enjoyed it xxx

I think of her as an author of fanfiction, but I was wondering if it does count for the challenge because she doesn't publish a book in the book.
Thank you in advance!
I have one thing left I hope I finish it because I am also doing that midnight readers readathon thingy

Book scavenger hunts are like scavenger hunts but with reading! There will be a list of items (eg: read a book with a green cover) and each item will have a different point value. You will have one month to gather as many points as you can, and at the end of the month, the person with the most points wins!
Rules:
1. One book per item on the list—books CANNOT double count!
2. You must read the book within the month of the scavenger hunt—previously read books DO NOT count (unless, of course, you reread)!
3. Magazines DO NOT count.
4. Short stories DO NOT count (unless you read an anthology of short stories).
5. Novellas DO count.
6. HAVE FUN!!!
