The Eclectic Reader Challenge 2015

I tried this challenge last year and got a few of the categories completed, but hopefully I can do a little better this coming year.

The categories are:

• Retellings (fairy tales, legends or myths)
• A Book set in a country starting with the letter S (eg. Spain, Sweden, South Africa, Singapore, Slovakia)
• PI Crime (fiction featuring a private investigator)
• A novel published before you were born
• Contemporary Romance
• Fiction for Foodies (fiction featuring food/food related business)
• Microhistory (Nonfiction)
• Science fiction set in space
• Sports (Fiction or nonfiction)
• Featuring diversity
• Epistolary Fiction (fiction written in the format of letters/emails/diary entries)
• Middle Grade/ YA Adventure

Here is what I am going to be reading:

1. Retellings: Ella Enchanted
