2024 Book Bingo with Amplify Bookstore - hosted by amplifybookstore

Something out of your comfort zone.
This is your opportunity to branch out! Maybe you mostly read fiction — try your hand at non-fic (a memoir is often a good place to start, if that's you). Maybe you're the opposite, you mostly read non-fic — maybe a quick pivot into poetry? You could just read beyond your usual genre confines (I never really read scifi/fantasy, so that's on the cards for me!). This prompt is as broad as you want it to be.
