Reading the manga Snow White with the Red hair (e-book)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (audio)
I read Kate Carlisle’s A Knife Before Christmas.

This od what I have found: "Ismay is a tall woman with striking red hair, always impeccably dressed, as if she were expecting to be photographed at any moment."
Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter. 4 stars.
Wish The Jurassic World movies had novel adaptations. Bryce Dallas Howard's character, Claire, had red hair.I already read the Twilight books last year so not in the mood to do a re-read of those.
Since that's not an option I need to find a nonfiction book with someone with red hair.
I read Pippi Longstocking by Astrid Lindgren. It was super cute! I would LOVE to read it again to my kiddos when they grow up!
Kathryn Moon's Tempting Monsters series contains characters with red hair!
Iris Johansen’s character Eve Duncan series (Eve Duncan has red hair)
The Winter Sea bySusanna Kearsley. I chose this for the historical setting on the coast of Scotland. I was not expecting a traditional historical romance, which I don't normally seek out, however, I am glad our paths crossed. Beautiful descriptions, captivating characters, and interesting history combined to make this a memorable experience. 3.5 stars.
My choice waiting for this category is Fortress by Marci Lin Melvin.
I read Dark Places by Gillian Flynn
Really Good, Actuallythought of this right away because of the cover! I didn't love it but idea for others!
I read Jolene, by Mercedes Lackey for this prompt.
The Kind Worth Killing The Crescent City series
Nimona
The Naturals
The Adventures of Tom Bombadil by J.R.R. Tolkien
I read and listened to The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett for this prompt. This was the physical book that had been on my bookshelf the longest, as well as being the longest book on my bookshelf.
I am very happy to have completed this book. 😊
I read Carving Shadows into Gold by Brigid Kemmerer - Alek has red hair, and I felt like he was even more MC-ish in this book.
I used this prompt as an excuse to read Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland, since one of the book's focuses, Dolours Price, is a redhead. I'm so glad I did, because this book was INCREDIBLE,
I was having a hard time with this prompt because I don't pay attention much to detail but then I remembered this book. It's been on my TBR/wish list and Mon Mothma from Star Wars has red hair so it fits for it.The Mask of Fear
I read Anne of West Philly: A Modern Graphic Retelling of Anne of Green Gables by Ivy Noelle Weir.I actually was reading this for the direction challenge when I realized that Anne was a GINGER!
First Time Caller by B. K. Borison.
Statistically Speaking by Debbie Johnson.
Eve Duncan series from Iris Johansen books
“Better Late Than Never� by Jenn McKinlay has two red headed men that are vying for the main character Lindsey. It is not as good as some of the others in the series so I recommend reading one of the earlier ones.

How was the book? I feel like I read about a quarter or even a third many years ago, but somehow got distracted and never went back... I pretty clearly remember the storyline and I'm not sure why I gave up...
The Adventures of Tom Bombadil
For this one I read The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black. The main character, Hazel, has red hair.
I have already read it, so it's a suggestion for others. The mortal instruments series by Cassandra Clare. Clary is a main character with red hair. Good YA series me and my friends enjoyed a lot.
I read The Grand Hotel by Scott Kenemore
I used The Fault in our Stars - Lidewij is a redhead!
