Hello! It is lightly flurrying here this afternoon so I whipped up a nice big batch of black bean soup, wrapped the pups in their blankies, and thought it might be a great time to post a couple last reading challenges before New Years hits tomorrow night--one must have time to prepare, right?

| The only thing that would make this even better would be mugs of cocoa....so cozy!! |
First is the Ultimate Pop Sugar Reading Challenge which I attempted last year but ended up falling short trying to complete my A to Z Challenge at the same time. I like the idea of these 'scavenger hunt' type challenges, it just sometimes takes a little too much thinking to come up with an appropriately matching book for some of the prompts. Like, just let me read!! But then, a friend sent me a second similar challenge which I'll also post here, so throwing both of these out there for any takers. Here's the Pop Sugar list for 2018:
