ETA: I finished Beacon 23 and my bonus book, The Secret Life of Albert Entwistle. Monsters ended up being a rare DNF for me. I had picked it up because the author's note was so amusing. Unfortunately the writing did not compare to the note. I also read Dead City, which wasn't picked.

This challenge has been so helpful that I've cleared out most of my Dusty Books and don't have enough left to participate anymore!

For your regular picks, I just went with two that are also my my tbr list that I'm eager to read, as well: Matrix by Lauren Groff and Harlem Shuffle by Colson Whitehead (though it almost feels like cheating ^_^ ).

As for your bonus pick, I noticed that you've liked a few other Neil Gaiman books, but haven't read Neverwhere (London Below, #1) by Neil Gaiman yet. It's one of my absolute favorites of his, and one of my absolute favorites, period. Hopefully you like it as much as I did. Then again, it's hard to go wrong with Neil Gaiman.

I'm choosing Ordinary Hazards by Nikki Grimes and The Curious World of Calpurnia Tate (Calpurnia Tate, #2) by Jacqueline Kelly for you.

As a bonus I suggest the Bizenghast manga series Bizenghast, Volume 1 (Bizenghast, #1) by M. Alice LeGrow . It's a horror series with some mystery and fashion thrown in.

Have a great month of reading!

My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She's Sorry by Fredrik Backman - I had no expectations about this book when I first picked it up, but I turned out to love it. Very sweet.

The Boyfriend Makeover (The Boyfriend Chronicles, #3) by River Jaymes - I haven't read any of the rest of your books, but I couldn't resist this cover!

BONUS: Focus - A Memoir by Ingrid Ricks - This is a brief memoir about a woman who discovered she had an eye debilitating disease and how she learned to handle it.
