Hangout for Friendly Readers discussion

We should do a holiday themed challenge! So let’s say the challenge is for Christmas, you have prompts like read a book with a christmas tree on the cover, etc. and you have to read a book for each prompt. Just a suggestion 🤷🏻‍♀️ I can’t wait to do challenges, they’re so fun

A holiday theme would be fun!!

Ooo yeah that's a cool idea!

Love Amanda's “Library Roulette” idea!

I really like that idea! :-)

A possible problem with that idea (at least, if we tried to do it all the time) is that many --actually, probably most-- books aren't set just in one month or one season of the year. The plots usually extend over a longer time frame (several months of a year, or even more than a year.) But you can always suggest a book that's set in a particular month!
