Music. It has all moods. When you are happy, sad, loving, or whatever. And it sends out messages and emotions. Okay, let's get to the point!

We are going to have a challenge. A full year challenge. This won't have prompts, pages, page points, or whatever. It would have music.

Confused? Let's get you through the basics.

As you read books this year, you have to make playlists for them. Those song playlists can represent the emotions, hype, feelings you got from the book.
The playlist should have at least 5 to 7 songs, and something to link it. It can either be on Spotify or a youtube linked playlist. If you don't have any of those, you can write down your songs, and link them. You can also have songs of different languages, it doesn't matter, as long as it's music :)

This will go for the year 2021. From Jan 1 to Dec 31. If anyone has already made a playlist for a book, you can't make a playlist for it. But, you can ask the person who did, to combine some of your songs with it.

To sign up, all you have to do is post your first playlist and book, like this on this thread:
City of Bones
Playlist: (the link of the playlists or songs in it)
And then you can continue linking your playlists :)

At the end of the year, we will see all the books we have gotten playlists for. This challenge might even repeat next year. We won't have like a proper winner, but the one who comes up with the most playlists and the most songs will surely be acknowledged :)

In this thread, you can comment on all your questions and your playlists!
Hope to see a number of people expressing through music! :D

Yes!! I'm in this is such a cool idea :)
Tho I don't know how many playlists will I be able to make cause I have a very limited taste in music (mostly just pop songs 😂) but we'll see. I'm excited :)
