From Popsugar’s website:
This year’s reading challenge is about to up your 2020 reading game in a big way, and we can’t wait to share our 50 new book prompts with all of you. In addition to the 40 standard book challenge prompts, we’re bringing back the 10 “advanced” prompts for those bibliophiles out there looking for something extra. Are you ready for a plot twist? This year, the advanced section is all 2020-themed, from “a book set in Japan, host of the 2020 Olympics” to “a book with a character with a vision impairment or enhancement (a nod to 20/20 vision).”
You can download the printable list here, checking off the books as you go, and pin the handy graphic ahead for reference. Share your progress on Instagram with #popsugarreadingchallenge.

2020 is the first time I’m participating in Popsugar’s Reading Challenge. This is such a great list! Some of these books are ones on my TBR list, but some I’ve never heard of before, which is exciting!
Stick around for my reviews on these books as I spend the rest of 2020 reading them!
Looks like some great reads. Enjoy.

I still have yet to read The Gentlemen’s Guide to Vice and Virtue or The seven deaths of Evelyn Hugo but this challenge seems to have a ton of good reads! Best of luck 🙂
