A book about a pop star - January 13, 2026 - This biography tells how Ed Sheeran rose to fame. I enjoyed learning the stories behind his hit songs but the writing style is very dry.

A book with a character who has curly hair - January 7, 2026 - Bridget, the BFF, has blonde curly hair. This is a cute romance novel set in Prince Edward Island. I enjoyed all the references to places and landmarks that I've actually seen and experienced myself.

A book you meant to read in 2025 - January 4, 2026 - I didn't quite have time to finish this one before the new year. It's the second of the Saga of the Unfated series and it is full of adventure. There are some great plot twists and a satisfying ending.

Prompt 16 - a book set in or around a body of water - May 31, 2025 - This fantasy novel is steeped in Nordic mythology. It has the violence and adventure of Viking raids and also the magic and mystique of Norse gods. There's a bit more romance than I like, but still an interesting plot line.

Prompt 22 - a book about soccer - May 12, 2025 - One of the main characters in this novel goes to a soccer camp for the summer. It's a young adult story about four friends spending the summer apart for the first time since they were born. The author does a great job of capturing the emotional highs and lows of teenagers as they each face their own challenges.

Prompt 40 - a book about chosen family - May 4, 2025 - In the third book of this series, Molly learns more about Gran and her family's history. She discovers that even though you might come from"bad eggs," you can find the "good eggs" and choose to surround yourself with them. This novel is a great cozy mystery from a talented Canadian author. I hope Molly lives happily ever after.

Some of the prompts are weirdly specific but at least it's not a repeat-fest. Maybe I'll just do 40 prompts again. #popsugar #PopsugarReadingChallenge

Not loving a lot of the 2023 Popsugar prompts, but that means I can swap out more of them for rejects from the ATY challenge voting!

If you're in the US you'll probably get redirected to the US site with this link, since that happens the other way round for me.

Who does the Popsugar Reading Challenge? It has frustrated me a bit this year but I'm still ready to give 2023 a chance. They've posted some teasers on the FB group (I went there so you don't have to). Full list is out on 1st December.
I think the second prompt is probably "independent bookshop".
