I‘m on page 261 and nothing‘s happening. I loved Empire Falls but this is dragging. Sully isn‘t interesting or likable to me. I‘m thinking it‘s time to bail…

So, this is part 1 of 2 of the #TwinPeaksReadingChallenge prompt list.
🌲🌲🌲

To add a bit more spice/variation, I put all the prompts in a jar and will randomly draw one of them on the 24th of every month which I will *try* to prioritise.
🌲🌲🌲
This month's prompt is: 8 - The Double R: Book title has 2 'R's exactly.
I'm excited about this as that one offers me a few book choices I'm actually looking forward to read!😅
🌲🌲🌲

TheSpineView This is one of the easier prompts. I need to look through my stacks. Hope to my find something from my TBR mountain. 2mo
Bookwormjillk Interesting. I have committed to not bringing any new books into my house (including electronic) until April. I‘ll have to see what I have already. 2mo

StaceGhost I think the special agent one is going to be Shirley because my advisor suggested I read it lol this is such a cool idea and all these prompts are a lot of fun! 2mo
Yuki_Onna @TheSpineView Yes, right? I was relieved, tbh😁 If I had started with drawing the 'North Carolina' or the 'star-crossed lovers', for example, I'd be in trouble as a non-romance reader based in Germany😅 2mo
Yuki_Onna @StaceGhost 👏🤗 How are you, dear? 2mo
Yuki_Onna @Bookwormjillk That's how I'll play, too. I decided to do this to get books off my shelves on my Kobo read that have been sitting there for years.
That said, I really should have chosen some prompts more carefully, as I might not own a book set in North Carolina, for example... 😅 I just randomly chose prompts off my overflowing prompt list. We'll see how it goes... The plan is: read books already living in your household! 🌞
2mo
StaceGhost @Yuki_Onna excellent! Overwhelmed with challenging concepts and exciting work and loving it 😍 how are you? This is so good 2mo
Yuki_Onna @ShaceGhost That sounds exciting! Sending big hugs 🤗 2mo

It's a very laid back, low-pressure reading challenge I thought of to get a few books off my shelves read I might never read otherwise.
Play this as it works for you. Create a TBR for the prompts, combine it with other reading challenges, or simply tick off a prompt when you happen to read a book/novella/manga/graphic novel/children's book etc. that fits the prompt for you.

Chili I‘m excited to start! 2mo
Amor4Libros Excited about this! I started a book for prompt 23 😊 2mo
JessClark78 Can‘t wait to get started on this. I already have a few books picked out. 🙂 2mo
Yuki_Onna @Chili @Amor4Libros @JessClark78 🖤So happy you are on this journey with me! I'm looking forward to seeing your choices it you post about them! 2mo

PROMPT: JEWELRY

I thoroughly enjoyed Benedict and felt sorry for him as he worked through living without his wife. His JEWELRY shop and their love just hadn't been enough for them after they were unable to have children after eight years.

A heartwarming read about family and about trying new things.

An uplifting read.

Yuki_Onna @RaeLovesToRead Wow, really? That's so cool! I've re-watched Season 1 and 2 (which I know very well) with my boo and we're currently making our progress through Season 3 (A very slow one 😁) I'm so excited to have you with me - however loosely... 😊🤗

JessClark78 These are all great prompts. 🙂 3mo
CarolynM I love the prompts! Very creative and bringing back some memories😀 3mo

DieAReader @Yuki_Onna Thanks but not this time❤️‍🔥 3mo
Eggs Thanks! However I‘m overbooked 💞 3mo
Yuki_Onna @CarolynM Thanks so much, Carolyn! I'm glad you enjoy them and happy to have you with me on this little journey! Impressive that you watched this when it first aired - I was too young back then and my mother opposed to private TV channels (I live in Germany). Discovered David Lynch for me in the early 2000s when I had moved out and could watch what I wanted.😁 3mo
Chili I‘m so excited for this! 3mo

Just had my Covid booster shot - and mentioned to the pharmacist that I worked across the road at the library - and she was like - oh! Are you going back to work after this? Can you return my book? 😂🤣

Of course I can!

Ruthiella Now that‘s service! 😆 3mo
LeeRHarry Good book choice too. 😊 3mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @LeeRHarry, I lost interest once I realised it was a 5 book series 😅 3mo
