What’s In A Name Challenge 2020 – Completed!

The What’s In A Name Challenge is being hosted again for 2020 by Andrea at Carolina Book Nook.  Andrea took over in 2019 from Charlie at The Worm Hole who hosted previous years’ challenges.  You can find out how I got on with the challenge in 2019 here.

The challenge runs from January to December 2020. During this time you must read a book whose title fits each of the following categories. I’ve made some provisional selections below (trying to pick from my TBR pile where possible). The link from the title will take you to the book’s entry on Goodreads.  Once I’ve read them, I’ll replace this with a link to my review.

It’s a really fun challenge, so why not sign up to take part yourself?

  3. Interesting challenge! I’ll think about doing this one… I already have three books that fit three of these categories – four if I change the word “and” to & in “Jackie and Maria.”

  4. This would be a good way to clear some books from the TBR. I don’t think I would do very well but yiunseem to have found interesting books to match those prompts

  5. I was thinking that the antonym category would be extremely difficult but that creativity-encourage helped me figure out quite a few options. enjoy!
