Capricorn Season has come to an end, and with it the first round of my new #BookishAstrology challenge. Each month on Instagram, I am sharing four astrology-themed prompts for whichever sign the sun is in or will enter shortly. I started off in late 2020 with Capricorn, and was so happy to have a few bookstagram friends join me on my adventure. Let’s look at the prompts and which books they chose for each week!
This challenge is on-going! Visit my Instagram page to join in!
