LONG LIST ALERT
Another year, another POPSUGAR Reading Challenge to start and not finish. Just kidding. My biggest goal this year is to complete all the prompts. That’s it. The worst that can happen is that I don’t complete it. I’m trying to keep it easy and breezy this year. Not too much pressure. Remember to read what you enjoy! Don’t be afraid to DNF.
Anyway, I have multiple options for a lot of prompts just so I’m not limiting myself. I don’t need to read all of them. This list could also help you with yours, if you decide to participate. Enjoy!
