(Halfway) there and back again, and it’s time for another round-up of lists, recommendations, and random adventurer loot!

 

 

Our prompt challenge map was put to some excellent use:

Heather at Based On A True Story took The Road Less Travelled;

Snapdragon Alcove took a dip in The Fountain of Youth before going monster hunting, then explored steampunk in a visit to the Clockwork Castle;

Rebecca at Powder & Page braved the darkness of Grimdark Forest;

Celeste at A Literary Escape ventured out to the Reaching Fingers;

Ellie at Curiosity Killed The Bookworm, Celeste at A Literary Escape, and Janette at Witchyreading braved the Icy Wastes of Waiting For the Next Book;

Anne at Black and White (Words and Pictures) used the map challenge to point us to some previous posts that fit the prompts;

and Caitlin at Realms of My Mind took us on another week-long journey to and from various locations!

 

The Sunday Fives also got a workout:

Mat, AKA Tiny Elf Arcanist went outside his comfort zone for our Sunday Fives, as did Rachael at The Green Tea Librarian, Jak at Lost in the Narrative, and Annemieke at A Dance With Books;

Zezee With Books, AKA our beloved queen of book tags, mashed a book tag up with this Sunday Five prompt too!

Rachael at The Green Tea Librarian and @wanderinglynn also introduced us to 5 characters in their comfort zone for another of our prompts, and Annemieke at A Dance With Books looked at books that depict comfort zones.
