Reading Challenge: Herding Cats
Filed Under (Books) by myjaxon on 17-04-2008
Ever since I started the other blog, I haven’t been posting any of my book stuff on this site, but I thought I would share this reading challenge I came across. It’s rather simple and most of my friends should be able to do it (if they wanted to). The challenge is this: you make up a list of 10 books that you love and then add it to the master list. Then you chose 3 books from the entire list and review them. The time frame for this challenge is May 1st to Nov 30th and all you have to do is read a minimum of 3 books. If you want the full rules, click here.
So here are my 10 books:
- The Devil Inside - Jenna Black
- Guilty Pleasures - Laurell K Hamilton
- Full Moon Rising - Keri Arthur
- Halfway to the Grave - Jeaniene Frost
- Poison Study - Maria Snyder
- You Slay Me - Katie MacAlister
- Wicked - Gregory Maquire
- Stray - Rachel Vincent
- Touch the Dark - Karen Chance
- Moon Called - Patricia Briggs
Here are my 3 picks:
- Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
- Eragon by Christopher Paolini
- The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
All three of these novels have been recommended to me at some point, so now I have even more of a reason to check them out. I found a few others I think I’m going to try, so as my alternates:
- In the Forests of the Night by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
- The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
- The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot
- Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
- Wizard War by Hugh Cook
- The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
- So You Want to be a Wizard by Diane Duane
- Faerie Tale by Raymond E. Feist
- Season of the Witch by Natasha Mostert
- The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
All the reviews will be posted on Literary Escapism, so if you do decide to do this with me (and I know there are a couple of other bookworms out there), then let me know so I make sure to look for your reviews.
