I'm late to the party, but these are the books I am going to read to join in with the Reading Rush. Are you taking part in this challenge? If so, how's it going? Let me know and we can chat in the comments.

Thanks for watching :)



The prompts:

1) Book with a cover the colour matching your birthstone - mine's topaz, so I chose Oranges are not the Only Fruit by Jeanette Winterson

2) A book starting with 'the' - The Children Act by Ian McEwan

3) Book inspired by a movie you've seen - Holes by Louis Sachar

4) Choose the first book you touch - Bitter Fame by Anne Stevenson

5) A book to read outside your house - Beaches by Rebecca Perry

6) A book from a genre you want to read more of - autobiography - Curriculum Vitae by Muriel Spark

7) A book set on a different continent than the one you reside in - Holes by Louis Sachar also fits into this one hehe.
