[The Book Worm]

Where are you at in the challenge? Which and how many prompts have you completed, and what do you have queued up?

I have 21 done! And reading a blue cover (Love Song of Ricki Wilde) and listening to a book set around holidays (the Holiday Trap). I think the ones I’ll have trouble with are 1) has dragons (already did fourth wing last year) 2) translated 3) published in my birth year 1986 4) author has my initials SB…I keep avoiding these because I can’t find anything - open to recommendations! Also would love to hear some ideas for social media hyped and indie (and bookseller rec!)

Congrats on how many prompts you've completed this early! If you haven't read "Before the Coffee Gets Cold" or any of its sequels, then that could work for translated as well as a Book Worm book club pick. As for social media hyped, maybe try "Divine Rivals" based on your other reads. "A Natural History of Dragons" is a dragon suggestion. And you may enjoy "Daisy Darker," "The Ex Talk," or "Nothing to See Here" as a bookseller rec.

Only on my 3rd prompt. Found a great trilogy from Nora Roberts that I could have also used for the book with dragons. Currently reading a book published in my birth year The Accidental Tourist. Going great so far. Have a couple lined up for a book mentioned on Gilmore Girls. This has been a really fun challenge so far!
