Dymocks Reading Challenge for August

The next lot of prompts are here, and they look interesting. I think I have my series book set, just need to get into it once I am through a few others. The shifting my perspective one feels quite open, and that means I can read something really cool. And I am hoping to read a verse novel for the poetry option. Because I think that’ll fit in nicely and I have a few that I have been meaning to read. Of course, I will also see what comes up with my review books too and how these might fit into the prompts.

August: Hibernate with a Good Read

1. Hibernate with a Series (Spend the final days of winter curled up with a series you won’t want to put down):
2. Delve into some poetry (Celebrate Poetry Month and pick up a poetry book or novel written by a poet):
3. Shift your perspective (Discover a life-affirming read to carry you throughout the rest of the year):
