a book that could be a dramatic soap opera: the search for treasure (middle grade book but the romance plotlines in this one were genuinely so dramatic)
finished in a day: the quest for paradise
trade pizza for: the dragon prophecy (i don‘t like dragons and would rather have a pizza)
limited world: the kingdom of fantasy
book you hyped up for months and didn‘t even read: strange houses (i was looking forward to this very much because of strange pictures and i literally only got reminded of this book because abi logged it for their read-off points)

Two more books added:

The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux for a book you'd trade for a slice of pizza
welp, it is what it is
Full bingo!!!!
The final girl support group for no plot, just vibes.
To clarify, there is a plot in this book …but it’s so purposefully tropey and I just read it for the slasher vibes so i thought it fit this prompt pretty well
Yayyy full card. it’s recently turned spring here, from winterx so I thought I was too late for the northern summer but I guess not!!
The Once and Future King by T. H. White for "Read in Nature" because I read the first part of this book on my camping trip in early August
no plot, just vibes: nothing to envy by barbara demick (this was a sort of memoir about north korean defectors so it really had no plot)

taming 7 for finished in a day
mythology: Kaikeyi by Vaishnavi Patel
I have not kept up with this, so I got caught up

European Author: Phantom of the Opera (Gaston Leroux was French)
A book that could be a dramatic soap opera: Northanger Abbey
A very niche plot: The Lamb
Plot set over 10 years ago: And Then There Were None
