Reading Challenges 2016!♥

• Hi readers, I'm back!  It's that time of the year again. These are the reading challenges I'm hoping to participate in 2016! Last year goals are here.
• Fairytale Retelling Challenge is hosted by Melanie from TheDailyProphecy 
• I did read and love many fantasy books last year, and the challenge I failed btw. I read about 12 books max and my goal was 26.  I'm hoping to read 16-20 books this year, aiming for Wise Princess since last year I wasn't wise at all. 

• Fairy tale Retelling Lists and Shelves
  • Daily Prophecy’s Goodreads shelf
  • Listopia on Goodreads
• The main goal is to read fairy tale retellings. You can also read books on mythology retellings and folk tales, upto you! You can read books from any year or audience, as long as they are retellings of some classic tales out there. You have until Feb 1st to join.
• Below are some of the books that I find interesting and I'm hoping to read ..!  Can we see how STUNNING these covers are? Fantasy novels have the best covers.

This is the challenge called The United States of YA hosted by Epic Reads.

They have a different YA book for each state, these are all very popular books in the genre section. I have read only 13 out of the 47, which is sad.

Personal New Adult challenge is a challenge I set for myself a year ago. NA has been around for a couple of years now, and most of the novels have failed to impress me, although, NA is one of my favorite genre. It's a complicated relationship. 

Goodreads Listopia. 

I'm hoping to discover some gems in a bunch of stones. Last year, I have read about 20 books that are NA, and I have really liked about 4 books which isn't a lot. I'm hoping to read 15 NA books next year for 2016. Below are the books I'm hoping to read .. ! I'm most def. not a fan of NA covers, except the book Rule. I love that guy on that cover *swoons.
