April 2025 Reading Prompts

The year is flying by, and April showers bring a fresh set of reading prompts. This month we’ll read books starring an animal as a main character, and since Earth Day is this month, we’ll read a book where climate change plays a role in the plot.

As always, the books listed are merely suggestions, and you are not limited to only the books I have listed. Also, I haven’t read all of the suggested books. Some of them I pulled from other reader’s lists because the synopsis sounded interesting. Do your due diligence to check trigger warnings, etc before jumping in. Happy reading!

Here are a few examples:

 



Prompt #2: Read a book where climate change is a plot point

In honor of earth day, how about we read a book where climate change plays a part in the overall plot. A few examples:
