Modern Mrs Darcy Reading Challenge Completed

Another challenge completed! I completed this one a few weeks ago, and my original post about it is here. This was the build your own challenge from lists of prompts from previous iterations of this challenge and I have to say, it was a really good one as there was a lot less pressure to adhere to specific categories that one may not find a book for. It allowed me to choose open categories that just about anything could fit, and whilst some may see this as too easy, as someone who reads a lot for pleasure, reviewing, and work, challenges that have a sense of openness in their categories or goals work well for someone like me. I reviewed nearly all of the books apart from one or two, and have linked all the reviews to this post.
