One fun way to discover new books is to complete reading challenges.
Here are a few challenges to try:
- Find a book with titles that start with the first letter of your first name and/or last name.
- Pick a state, city, or country of your choice, and find books to read set in that place.
- Search for books with a specific cover, ie: flowers, food, a rainbow, hands, an animal, etc.
- Try reading books of another genre or format. For example, if you usually read fantasy, try a mystery or historical fiction. Or, if you usually read traditional novels, try a graphic novel or manga for a change!
- Search for books set during a specific time period, ie: Civil War, 1960's, the 80's, tje Victorian era, etc.
