Please keep in mind that books that literally start with ‘A’, ‘An’ or ‘The’ will be posted in the group of the second word, as per the A-Z Reading Challenge, and my entire movie collection.
This one is gonna be a LOOOONG one, friends – so I’m only doing Sa-Si, and it’s STILL the longest one to date. So, without any further ado, let’s continue with the letter S.
I 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 need to read Saga 🤦🏻♀️ but I’ve read Saving Francesca – mostly to take it out of the library and tease my sister about it (as she shares her name with the title 😄) I didn’t like The Scorpio Races the first time I read it so I think I’ll try it with an audiobook this time (if the library has it 🤞🏻 but apparently I gave it 4 stars on GR.
SEA OF MONSTERS .🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I mean I’d say The Sword of Summer (The Magnus Chase series) as a recommendation, but I also recommend people read Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus before – not entirely 100% needed, but there are parts in Magnus Chase that make it easier to understand.
I can actually say that The Scorpio Races is one of the only audiobooks that I have loved. It’s two narrators, one for Puck and one for Sean, and I just love the cadence that they narrate at. It’s got that kind of slow-paced reading in a whimsy and lyrical way, but some parts are quick as well. (I mean, seriously, I just love this book more and more every time I read it.)
This is a fun challenge but yeah… my ‘s’ list would be really long too! Lol. Simon, Crows and Evelyn…. ❤️
Although I haven’t actually read Simon yet.! Just know I want to and that I’ll love it 😄
I hope you do read it, and that you love it when you do. Surprisingly it’s not my fave Albertalli book – I actually loved The Upside of Unrequited more. I think Molly was based on me when I was 16!!
I’ve heard really good things about The Seven Husbands, and I also read another of TJR’s books and really liked it, so I should add that one too. I’ve also been eyeing Sherwood a bit. 🙂
whoah, what a list and you’re almost done with the challenge. Congratulations. 🙂 🙂

I really liked it! An all female pirate crew, very action packed, I wasn’t a huge fan about the obvious romance though!
