an LGBTQIA* book :(

a scary/creepy book The Graveyard Apartment

a book that is part of a series but not the first book (could be a later released prequel though) The Hero of Ages

a Goodreads Choice Awards winner (any year, any category The underground Railroad

a book with an animal on the cover The Last Banquet

a book mostly set in the desert Rebel of the Sands

a book that was adapted into a movie Rebecca

BONUS: watch a movie that was based on a book! (maybe make it the same as #20) The Hunger Games

I did pretty well with my challange. As you can see I have two unread categories, and what I'm most bummed about is that I didn't read an LGBTQIA book. I did buy one that I am really hyped for, but as per usual in my case I got distracted by other books and didn't read it. The good thing is that now I have it for 2018's challenge! ;)

Rebecca was one of my absolute favourites of the year and I think everyone should read it. Another highlight was re-reading Anne of Green Gables, a book (series) that I adored as a child.

Hello guys!
I'm Sofie and I participated in 2016's challenge and I finished it :O I think the goals for 2017 looks a bit more tricky, so we'll see how I fare.
I like most genres if the books are well written, but I do not often pick up a crime/thriller unless someone makes me.

So of the 2017's challenge goals I think that "set in a desert" and "about food" will be the two hardest ones to fill. Maybe. I already have a book in mind set in a desert, but if I don't like it I don't have a back-up plan, and I have no idea where to start to look for books about food. Cookbooks?
