I probably wont finish another book by tomorrow, especially not one that has more than 6 words in the title, so I'm ending this challenge with having completed 6/10 prompts.

I only included 10 prompts because I don't know how easy or difficult this is going to be--I haven't done this type of challenge before, but it seems fun! I feel like I did a lot of mental gymnastics trying to explain some of these, so I hope they make sense. Lol. If they don't, just let me know! 😅 And let me know your thoughts on this!
