CC: 52 Book Club 2026 Challenge Set #4

The 52 Book Club’s annual reading challenge is made up of 52 unique reading prompts. The goal is to match one book to each prompt, for a total of fifty-two books over the year.

Prompts are related to everything from specific words in the title to cover design, authors, genres, settings, themes, characters, etc.

Think of it like a giant bookish scavenger hunt!
