Some I didn't manage, or that I counted as another category:

• a book of short stories
• a nonfiction book 
• a Pulitzer Prize winning book
• a book your mom loves
• a book based entirely on its cover (entirely?)
• a book you were supposed to read in school but didn't (this book does not exist)
• a book with bad reviews (not sure if this book exists either)
• a trilogy (like a whole trilogy in one year?)
• a book from your childhood (would a picture book count?)
• a book with a color in the title (I had a few of these but used them for other categories)
• a book that made you cry
• a play
• a book based on or turned into a TV show (I'd love to read The 100)

Here's next year's challenge list. What do you think? Are you in?
