Now that I am almost done reading Alice Walker's The Color Purple, I thought that I should probably have a look at the future tasks presented by the Popsugar Reading Challenge 2016. So here are the next two challenges:

Team Potter or Team Everdeen?? (1)


1) A YA bestseller: So naturally, first thing that came to my mind was Katniss Everdeen and Harry Potter!!



Too much melodrama!! (2)
However both these characters are part of long book series and I hoped to read something that was more of a standalone. While browsing the web for some good Young Adult books, The Fault in Our Stars by John Green often came up. But I was reluctant to read that book. Too melodramatic. 

Anyways, I think I finally decided to ready Judy Blume's Are You There God? It's Me Margaret. This book is such an evergreen classic. I look forward to reading it. 

The Winner !! (3)

2) A Book you haven't read since High School: This looked tough mainly because I have forgotten the many books that I had read way back in school. Save for select writers, I was not very author specific and was just content to read anything as long as it was interesting. Come to think of it, I think my reading habits still remain the same in that aspect minus some exceptions such as the 'gifted' Chetan Bhagat!! 
Anyways, this was easier than I thought it would be. I already have an old earmarked copy of The Three Musketeers by Alexander Dumas lying around in my bookshelf that I believe I bought in my school years. I can't think of a better book to become nostalgic over!! 

All for one, and one for all! 

One of my favorite classics.  (4)
