good luck with your challenge! Yours is the only list where I recognize half the authors. There are sure a lot of books to read out there!

Good luck to you! I read Death on the Nile for the 2021 challenge "book made into a movie" category.

Good luck with your challenge

Good titles, Elizabeth! I’ve heard of some of those titles and they would interesting! And the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a classic masterpiece! Remember reading that as a young child!
Good luck! 🐾

Thank you all for your good wishes. This challenge is enabling me to commit to reading books that have been sitting on my shelves for a good while. It is difficult to tackle the TBR when there are so many terrific books coming out all the time and the TBR books get pushed further down the list.

I know exactly what you mean! I can totally relate! 🐾
