Six in Six ~ 2026 edition

Good morning!

Here’s the third edition of this one on my blog, as we did one for 2024 & 2025. The * indicates a new prompt, the rest being kept from last year. Woops I just noticed last two years just had five prompts

 

What is it all about?

The idea being that as the end of June approaches and we are then halfway through the year, let us share the books we have read in those first 6 months. In fact let’s share 6 books in 6 categories, or if time is of the essence then simply share just 6 books. Whatever combination works for you as long as it involves 6 books. Of course the same book can obviously feature in more than one category (from Jo’s book journey). This year it’s being hosted @wordsandpeace.
