Note: this challenge must be completed in order

15. Recommended by someone else based on your review of previous book: Share your review of your previous read with a friend, librarian, or on social media (check out The 52 Book Club’s Facebook Group!) Ask for a recommendation solely based on your thoughts of the previous book. Whether you loved it or hated it, recommendations should be based on that review alone, not your usual preferences.

Example: I really enjoyed my previous read, Desert Star, so someone recommended that I read Murder, Madness and Mayhem: Twenty-Five Tales of True Crime and Dark History by Mike Browne, a non-fiction read featuring twenty-five tales of true crime

Michele Olson | 533 comments I really liked Killer Instinct, so the recommendation was I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga. I've read that one, so I will read the last book in the trilogy, Blood of My Blood.

Cathi | 1 comments I just Finished "A long Petal of the Sea" by Isabell Alende. Here is my Review and maybe someone has a good recommendation what i could read next :) I gave it 3.75 stars
enjoyed the writing style and was interested in the storyline. However sometimes this book felt more like a nonfiction and I had a hard time connecting to the characters. It took some time to get into the story. I enjoyed the second half way more than the first. On the other side I did not like the ending. It felt unfinished to me but that was probably the point. I would enjoy reading more historical Fiction similar to this. Has anyone any good recommendations?
