It's over! I have officially finished the Ripped Bodice Summer Bingo! In case you haven't seen, I have done a tbr and a mid-challenge wrap up. These are good to look at if you are still working on completing the challenge and want some recs/ideas. The Ripped Bodice is a romance only book store in California. What's fun about their challenge is they usually pick unique prompts that are sometimes hard to find (for me). It usually has me reading at least one book out of my comfort zone. If you are participating, don't forget to fill out the google form on their website! They are doing giveaways and you can enter for 4 bingos and then the blackout. Below is the blank board in case you haven't seen it yet.
Below is my completed board. I'll list out what book I read for which prompt starting at the top left corner and going row by row. Each link will take you to my review!

I had a lot of fun again and was pushed outside my normal reading habits. It's also always fun to read and randomly come across a book that has a prompt. For example, I was struggling finding book that had a karaoke scene and was pleasantly surprised when I read Witches Get Stitches and it had one. That's always fun, but for little scenes like that it can be hard to find. In the past there's been goodreads lists, but I didn't see any this year (at least by mid-July). I haven't checked recently. I can't wait to see what they do next year!

Bookishly Yours,
