This year's Goodreads Summer Reading Challenge is really pared down a lot from last year so it should be quite doable although they aren't particularly summery this time.
So my plan is to read what I have to read for book club and see if anything fits and then when I have free time, try to choose some books I already have on my TBR or my shelf that might fit some of the challenges.
I already have some ideas for some of the challenges:
The book is better: Artemis Fowl is coming out as a movie in August.
Past Love: Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats on which the musical CATS is based. I loved this as a kid and have seen the musical several times. It will also be a movie coming out in December so it fits the above challenge and it would also fit Wheel of Format since it is a book of poetry.
It Takes Two & Actually Want to Read: Illuminae by Annie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff has been on my TBR since 08/03/18.
In the Friend zone: I just received a copy of Sarah Dessen's newest book The Rest of the Story from a friend and since it is YA contemporary, it should be a perfect summer read.
Stay Awhile - I just downloaded The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss from audible and I will be listening to it during my daily walks. The actual book has 994 pages ; the audio is 42 hours. 53 minutes.
Not from Around Here; The Storyteller's Secret (currently reading) primarily takes place in India and therefore has a lot of Indian culture (mythology, customs, celebrations).
How can I not participate when I already have such a great start! Go to Goodreads to download a printable PDF copy of the challenges and join the fun
