52 Books in 52 Weeks

To ensure that I’m averaging at least one book per week, I’ve compiled a list of 52 reading prompts. The list is a mixture of leftover prompts that were not satisfied in year(s) past and new prompts for this year. Some of these prompts are vague while others are very specific. The only rule is that a book cannot satisfy more than one (1) prompt.
