It's never to late to check out the 2015 PopSugar Reading Challenge. Let me know if you're in it - we've also got a Facebook group where we talk about it, discuss what we've read, and suggest books to fit all the different categories.
I read Hollow City by Ransom Riggs as my 'book with non-human characters.' While I probably enjoyed the first book in the trilogy (Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children) a little more, I think that was primarily because the first book introduced the whole concept, which made it fascinating in a new way.Hollow City covers the peculiar children escaping from the island that used to be their home. They have several missions to accomplish: to help their previous 'mother-figure' back to normalcy, of sorts; to find another loop - the environment they need to continue surviving - where they can live going forward; and to stay free from the wights who want to capture them for the hollowgasts - their mortal enemies whose only goal is to capture the peculiar children and essentially eat their souls.
I can't wait for the third book, Library of Souls, to come out near the end of September!!

This looks interesting! Is it kind of creepy too? I haven't read a novel in so long, mostly sticking to bio's and how to books lately.
I finished the first one and could not wait to start the second. It's been on my kindle for a year and I haven't finished it. Please tell me it picks up.
Sounds like it could be an interesting book, but it does sound kind of creepy. Not sure I could handle the creepy part of it.
Sounds interesting! I'd like the movie form of the book :)
The PopSugar Reading challenge sounds like a great way to broaden your reading horizons. I don't have much time to read, so I don't know that I'd be able to get it done. I'm not sure I'd like these books though. I'm not much for the fantasy/horror genre.
Looks interesting...I totally understand the struggle of waiting for the next book in a series to come out!!
