Book Riot Challenges (2018)

Page

Two years ago, I tried my hand at Random House Book Bingo. At first, I seemed up for the challenge by carefully choosing which book I would read for which square. In the end, I only read one book on the list.

I’m determined to make 2018 my bitch and read ALL the books to complete this challenge! So far I’ve read one book that fits the 24 categories and reading another one (I’ll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara)!!!! Please let me know if you have suggestions for the other categories — I need as much help as I can get!!!! See all my exclamation marks? Seriously.

Thanks Book Riot for these wonderful challenges (that will improve the minds of everyone who does them)!
