I had every intention of staying up til midnight to start the read-a-thon right on time. I fell asleep at 11:30. Oh well. I am going to re-read Shiver and Linger and then Forever when it comes out tomorrow (all by Maggie Stiefvater). And if I have time, The Giver by Lois Lowry, too. I intend to do this read-a-thon while living my normal life of watching two young kids, cooking dinner, grocery shopping and helping a friend move. It’s not a read-a-thon unless it’s challenging!
UPDATE: Mini-challenge! From IB Book Blogging
Mini Challenge Question 1:
What is your favorite type of myth (Greek, Roman, Egyptian etc)?
I love Greek mythology! Rick Riordan talked about how family dysfunction and divorce is not a modern problem – just read Greek mythology. I love that!
Mini Challenge Question 2:
What is your favorite book with some type of mythology in it?
Harry Potter by far! She incorporates more mythology from different sources than any one person should be able to!
My name is Jessica. I love to read Young Adult and classic literature. I’ve been a book blogger for six years and I haven’t gotten tired of it yet. I’m a very curious reader. Writing about all the questions and thoughts I had while reading a book is the best hobby ever.
Awesome! I am excited to join your read-a-thon! I will be finishing the game of thrones series and then I will start the mortal instruments series! I also want to read pride and prejudice again. It has been too long since I last read it.
Yes, Rowling is an expert at incorporating so many different mythologies into her books.
Great answer.
