Suggest a Bookish Bingo Prompt!

Okay I have a few possibilites for May:

*There is National Space and National Star Wars Day so maybe read a syfy

  • Mother’s Day falls in May so maybe read a book with a mother as the protagonist
    *May is National Mental Health Awareness so maybe read a book dealing with mental health

Then there’s random ones like:
*Read a book out of your comfort zone

  • Read a book that makes you think of spring

Pandemic or sickness themed book! :mask:

There’s Cinco de Mayo, so maybe something Mexican in origin. Then there’s Memorial Day, so having to do with the military?

And since ‘Rain on the cover’ was a space for April, it would make sense to have ‘Flowers on the cover’ for May.

Some suggestions for May:

— I second the suggestion for a book based on a Mother character.
— A book with a medical professional as a main character.
— A book about travel (this might help us hope for the future … … … or be a nightmare that we can be glad we are avoiding!)
— A book celebrating Memorial Day/beginning of the summer season.
— As libraries remain closed, another pleas for any wild card book around the house that we can scrounge up!

Yet Another Prompt Suggestion:

Why not select a state and then use any book in/about that state? This would take care of a prompt category for the next 50 months!

May’s Bookish Bingo board is here and you’ll see many of your suggests have made it onto the board: May Bookish Bingo 🌞

June 6th is the Run Across America event so maybe a book with a main character who runs in their free time or a book about running/exercising in general

An excellent running book is Running with Sherman by Christopher McDougall.

For June:

– A book revolving around a father as a character.
– A book revolving around a bride as a character.
– A book dealing with air travel.
– An audiobook.
– Still pitching my idea of picking a book based in or about a state to kick off 50 easy prompts for the next four+ years!
– We could still use one “readers choice” to carry us through until libraries start to reopen!
– A book that features swimming.
