The 52 Book Club: 2025 / 2026 Challenge discussion

Another ode to our "2020" theme for the year. Who's got 20/20 vision? What are some of your favourite characters who wear glasses?

A Christmas Story. Who wears glasses better than Ralphie? LOL

Having trouble finding a book for this category.

How to Hook a Bookworm

I read Get a life ,Chloe Brown this year. The main Character wears glasses and the story is also enjoyable.

Thanks! I will go with Chloe Brown. I had that as “Want to Read”.

I am going to read "Marrying Stone" by Pamela Morsi (about a photographer in the Ozarks) It is on the good reads guys with glasses book list so okay...giving it a try.

I’m rereading the Harry Potter series this year so I’m sorted.

Any of the Harry Potter books would count for this category

I read Meet Cute. It was sweet.

Just checked out Meet Cute. That is definitely a contender for me. I see her glasses on the cover. Thanks!

You’re welcome!

Into which House? (I crack myself up!)

If you like Harry Potter, but don't want to reread it, Rick Riordan is a great author. His Trials of Apollo series features Meg, a young girl who wears glasses.

For my Novel challenge: Unravelled Knots: The Teahouse Detective by Baroness Orczy. (3 Stars)
For my Picture Book challenge: Arthur's Jelly Beans by Marc Brown (3 Stars)

Thank you! I recently started the challenge, and have been going back through the books I've read this year to see what meets the prompts. I'd forgotten Zachary wears glasses! Long live ZER!

I read “Lord of the Flies” for this prompt - I never had to read it in school!

Good Omen by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman. One of its main characters, Crowley, is almost all the time wearing black glasses!

"The Traitor" by V.C. Alexander a girl spy was always adjusting her glasses.

I read "The Rosie Project" by Graeme Simsion.

I just read “To Kill a Mockingbird” for the first time!!!!
Atticus Finch....what a beautiful story!
