Day 20 of the #ABCbookChallenge - ‘T’ - My pick for today is Tell Me How You Really Feel by Aminah Mae Safi. This another book on my ASAP TBR. “Told in alternative viewpoints and inspired by classic romantic comedies, this engaging and edgy YA novel follows two strongwilled young women falling for each other despite themselves.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ABC Challenge goes from the 1st -26th November. The aim each day is to post a book that starts with the day's letter. Nov 1st = A, Nov 2nd = B, and so on. Hosted by @read3rz_revu myself and @tiensblurb Each host will be holding a giveaway at the end of the challenge for challenge participants. To be eligible you must be following each of the three hosts and have partook in at least 5 days of the challenge. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #igreads #ausyabloggers #bookblogger #booknerd #booklover #booklove #26daybookchallenge #bookstagramchallenge #AussieBookBloggers #bibliofile
Day 19 of the #ABCbookChallenge - ‘S’ - My pick for today is Serious Moonlight by @j3nn_benn Are any of you shocked to see another Jenn Bennett novel from me, haha of course not ❤️❤️❤️ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ABC Challenge goes from the 1st -26th November. The aim each day is to post a book that starts with the day's letter. Nov 1st = A, Nov 2nd = B, and so on.

Day 18 of the #ABCbookChallenge - ‘R’ - My pick for today is Runaways, Vol. 1: Find Your Way Home by Rainbow Rowell (Author) & Kris Anka (Illustrator). Vol 1 collects the first 6 episodes of Rowell’s reboot of Vaughan’s original series and what a fantastic reboot it is!! I’ve got Vol 2 & 3 sitting on myself and I'm itching to read them. I don’t think you would need to have read all the previous series by Vaughan to enjoy Rowell’s reboot, she does summarise a little, but It makes it all that much more epic if you are already invested in the characters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ABC Challenge goes from the 1st -26th November. The aim each day is to post a book that starts with the day's letter. Nov 1st = A, Nov 2nd = B, and so on.

Day 17 of the #ABCbookChallenge - ‘Q’ - My pick for today is Queens of Geek by Jen Wilde. “Three friends, two love stories, one convention: this fun, feminist love letter to geek culture is all about fandom, friendship, and finding the courage to be yourself.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ABC Challenge goes from the 1st -26th November.
