Dymocks August Prompts completed

A half-empty bookshelf with white text above three spaces for the books read. Dymocks Reading Challenge Hibernate with a Great Read.

Another month, and another set of prompts from Dymocks complete. I didn’t think I would get through as quickly as I did, but I managed. The Shift your perspective prompt threw me at first, but then I realised it was really open to interpretation. The poetry one I decided to use a verse novel, because I didn’t have too many poetry books at hand other than verse novels. And as luck would have it, as often happens with these prompts, I had only just read a new verse novel last month. And the series option was answered for me when I got a review box, and there was something in there that fitted in well. Onto September!
