2020 Mommy Mannegren 52 Books in 52 Weeks Reading Challenge

Each year, I take on different reading challenges as a way to get outside of my reading comfort zone. This year in addition to doing the 2020 Popsugar Reading Challenge, I also added the Mommy  Mannegren 2020 52 Books in 52 Weeks which contains a total of 52 books. 

Below is a list of all the books I have read for the 2020 52 Books in 52 Weeks Reading Challenge along with their reading prompt. After I finish each reading prompt, I will update this list. If you want to see more of the books I've read this year, you can check out my Goodreads profile at: https://www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/15431036.
