So it might come as no surprise to most that Sarah Dessen has been among one of my favorite authors for many years since I first read her book Lock and Key. From there I quickly fell down the rabbit hole and needed to read all of her books!
I wanted to do something a little special and a little different to celebrate her new book coming out, The Rest of the Story, which will be available on June 4th, and also the fact that Netflix might be making some of these books into movies! At first I was thinking about doing a bingo board but quickly realized that there were not enough books to cover a whole board and was a bit sad thinking that maybe my idea would not be able to come to fruition. Then I had (what I considered) a fantastic idea, what about doing a Sarah Dessen punch card!
So for this challenge you have until August 31st midnight CST to get in your finished punch card to be entered into a drawing for a pre-order of your choice (up to $15 us dollars please). To be considered as participating please post below with your twitter handle (so I can follow you and message you should you win). Then with each book you read, add an emoji, cross off, or otherwise mark the spots on the punch card to indicate that a book has been read.
Also please forgive me for this very simple punch card (graphics are not my strong suit). That being said if anyone who is great at making graphics would like to make a really pretty one for this challenge I would love you. If not here is the very simple punch card for everyone to use.
And for those who might need it, a list of Sarah Dessen books:
1. The Rest of the Story
2. Once and For All
3. Saint Anything
4. The Moon and More
5. What Happened to Goodbye
6. Along for the Ride
7. Lock and Key
8. Just Listen
9. The Truth About Forever
10. This Lullaby
11. Dreamland
12. Keeping the Moon
13. Someone Like You
14. That Summer
I will also be reading these books this summer and would love if people hop on and read with me! As I start reading the books, I will post updates on Twitter with which book I'm currently reading. So who's ready to have a Dessen filled summer!
