Are you participating in any reading challenges this year? That’s always one of my reading goals every year since I’ve done away with number reading goals.   One reading challenge I enjoy is the Pop Sugar Reading Challenge. For the 2025 challenge, I figured I’d give some recommendations!   A Book with Two Or More Books On The Cover or ‘Book’ In The Title Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley Bookish and the Beast by Ashley Poston Mr. Penumbra’s 24 Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares by David Levithan & Rachel Cohen A Book Set in or Around a Body of Water Don’t Date Rosa Santos by Nina Moreno The Girl from the Sea by Molly Knox Ostertag If You Change Your Mind by Robby Weber   A Book about Soccer You Don’t Have a Shot by Racquel Marie Café con Lychee by Emery Lee The Passing Playbook by Isaac Fitzsimons A Book About a Road Trip Amy & Roger’s Epic Detour by Morgan Matson Real Queer America by Samantha Allen (Not pictured) Here We Go Again by Alison Cochrun Everyone Hates Kelsie Miller by Meredith Ireland A Book Under 250 Pages Peter Darling by S.A.
