Results: Popsugar Reading Challenge 2022

Popsugar is a lifestyle magazine and their reading challenge has been around since 2015. On their website they list 40 book promps and additional 10 advanced prompts.
In 2022 I managed to fulfill all the tasks and discovered some interesting books and genres I otherwise would not have considered. That's why I like the challenge - it makes me read outside my comfort zone.
