Hello bookworms!!
The past couple of years I have seen so many people doing the Popsugar reading challenge and I’ve always thought it would be a fun challenge to try but for whatever reason I never did. This year however I have decided to give it a try. I doubt I will get through every prompt but I will try my best.

Some prompts I have listed multiple books for but I only have to read 1. For the prompts that I don’t have anything listed for I would really appreciate any suggestions y’all have. Also I am not doing the advanced section so I left those off of my list.

For a book written by a musician: Hindsight by Justin Timberlake, A book inspired by mythology, legend or folklore: The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden (Russian folklore), for a book you see someone reading on TV or in a movie: I suggest watching a few episodes of The Gilmore Girls, Retelling of a classic: Pride by Ibi Zoboi (Pride and Prejudice retelling), A book featuring an extinct or imaginary character: The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, or Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (the little textbook from the Hogwarts Library Collection), A book about Family: Save the Date by Morgan Matson, A book with a zodiac sign or astrology term on the cover: Zodiac by Romina Russell. I hope that helps, and good luck with this challenge.

I considered the Justin Timberlake book but it wasn’t available on Scribd. I’m going to check and see if I can get it from the library. I will definitely write these other ones down so I don’t forget. I know I’ve seen Rory reading all kinds of books on Gilmore Girls I just couldn’t remember any of the names. I think I might need to rewatch some episodes. It does help thank you!!

You’re very welcome. There’s actually a list somewhere online that has all the books that Rory read on the show. All you have to do is search “list of books Rory read on Gilmore Girls.”

I will do that but I still might watch a couple episodes because I really love that show and I haven’t rewatched it in a while.

Awesome! I’m also participating in Popsugar again this year, after skipping 2018 because I didn’t really like the prompts. I have a page on my blog with all the prompts and the books I might use for them so maybe you can find some inspiration for yourself there as well. 🙂

I’ve always wanted to participate but for some reason I never did so I decided to just go for it this year. I will definitely go through your post and see if any of the books are books I want to read or am at least a little bit interested in. Thank you.

I hope you have fun with it! It definitely had me picking up books I normally wouldn’t have read; even got me some new favorites. I think Jenny Lawson’s “Furiously Happy” was one I discovered thanks to the Popsugar of 2017. 🙂
