Mini Reading Challenge

To be honest, I am running out of things to say about reading on this blog other than my Book Discoveries. Also, I’m feeling like changing things a bit with reading other than just relying on my whims. To this end, I’ve set myself a mini reading challenge which is this: I would read 4 books this year that have elements that belong together in a theme irrespective of genre. Not 4 seasons because it’s too obvious and personally speaking, I don’t feel anything special for that theme. 

My current thought on theme is running the lines of getting outside the box of the number 4. For example, I could pick a random 4 of star signs or constellations or Tarot cards and Google books that have those elements. I am currently really liking Constellations and this is what caught my eyes through a Google search:

  • The Wide Starlight by Nicole Lesperance
  • Defy the Stars by Claudia Gray
  • Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
  • Ariadne by Jennifer Saint
  • Murder in Scorpio by Martha C. Lawrence
  • Collecting the Constellations by Emily Steers

The other aspect that I am changing is that I am going to seek a bit of input with this mini reading challenge. So feel free to leave me comments on theme and book suggestions.
