Bingo Reading Challenge - An update!

There was no way we could let our blogs just sit and rot, while we blamed everyone but ourselves for not writing. Deciding to put an end to the hiatus on writing, me and Ishithaa have decided to write on every day of November on alternate days. Today if the post is on my page, tomorrow it will be on hers.....

    That's a really cool and fun bingo card Meena! Never saw one like that before. I especially love that you love The Secret Life of Bees - you inspire me to read that as I wish to write a poem/song about them entitled "Ode to Bees" and I didn't know J.K. Rowling wrote a mystery (another book?!) and that you also love I Am Malala which I haven't read yet, but would love to too. I imagine that that is so inspiring a read! :) Have fun choosing a 500-page book as I'm sure there are many but I cannot think of even one at this time. <3
