I have been inspired by a reading challenge called Read Harder from a site called Book Riot. There are so many reading challenges on the web that are great to start with if you’ve never done one before! In my case, I have decided to compile my own list of book themes to tackle this year. FYI books can fit multiple categories, which means I will be reading multiple books in certain categories.
- A book that has been translated (into English)
- A book about a President
- A book of True Crime
- An Oprah Book Club Selection
- A Microhistory
- A book a friend recommends
- A Feminist book
- A book by Roxane Gay (which also fits the above theme)
- A book about a Historical Event
- A book about Birds
- A book published the year you were born
- A book related to Anthropology
- The first book from an author
- A book about a Revolution
- A book about Fashion
- A book about Hawai’i
- A book by a Person of Color
- A book about a Tycoon
- A book I’ve already read
- A book by John Le Carré (basically it means a spy book but supposedly he’s the master of them)
