Phoenix (Online Elf) | 4358 comments description

This challenge is a celebration of the number of the month. There will be no levels and no page requirements, and the idea is to mix and match among the prompts for as many as your books will fit. However, a book may only be used for one prompt at a time, not multiple prompts! Duration will be from June 1st to June 30th, 2021.

Your challenge is to read as many books as you can that correspond to these listed prompts. Your sign up post is the post you should keep updated. DO NOT copy your sign up post to announce you are finished with the challenge! Books listed should also have completion dates to count as participating in the challenge! Here are the prompts:

Sixth book in a series
Author's Sixth Book
Sixth Book on your TBR pile
A book published in June 2021
A book published in 2006
The sixth book you purchase in this month
Read a book for the sixth time
The sixth book that is recommended to you
The sixth book you loved this month
A book with the number 6 on the cover or the word Six in the title
A book published on the sixth of the month in any month and year
A book with title or author name that starts with the sixth letter of the alphabet
A book with a 6 word title
A book with a 6 syllable word in the title
A book with a 6 letter word in the title OR Author's First/Last Name (When using name it can only be one of the two, it can't be across both names!)
