Sponsored by Read Harder Journal, a reading log brought to you by Book Riot.
Created by Book Riot, this smartly designed reading log consists of entry pages to record stats, impressions, and reviews of each book you read, and is a GREAT GIFT for readers this holiday season. Evenly interspersed among these entry pages are 12 challenges inspired by Book Riot’s annual Read Harder initiative, which began in 2015 to encourage readers to pick up passed-over books, try out new genres, and choose titles from a wider range of voices and perspectives. Get one for yourself or for the readers in your life at bookriot.com/readharderjournal.
Hi mystery fans! I found you a bunch of things to read, rounded up some true crime articles (not all violent), and of course your Kindle deals (and 1 paperback). And now I’m off to inhale as many more books as I can that I haven’t gotten to yet this year because that’s how one ends the year, yes?
