Wasteland, Baby! by Hozier Reading Challenge

Starts: Sunday, 01 January 2023

Ends: Monday, 01 January 2024

Prompts based on the songs from Hozier's second studio album 'Wasteland, Baby!' in anticipation of his third, 'Unreal Unearth'. While none of the prompts focuses specifically on Ireland or Irish authors, books featuring Irish or Ireland-inspired settings, myths, characters, politics and social dynamics or written by Irish authors are highly recommended!

I have added NFWMB and Moment's Silence (Common Tongue) from the Nina Cried Power — EP as bonus prompts.
