...you forget about one of the challenges you signed up for. This is what happened with the
Unread Authors Challenge. Somehow, I neglected to post my challenge list on my sidebar, consequently forgetting I ever signed up for it. Man! This is what happens after you turn 30 - your memory just starts slipping away... Well, I have rectified the situation. And, just because I can't stop myself, I'm taking on Challenge #4 - Fall Into Reading. This one runs from September 23 - December 21, and is hosted by
Callapidder Days. It's a casual challenge, with no limits on how many books to read and
there will be prizes.
So, here's my list:
The Giver - Lois Lowry
The Lightning Thief - Rick Riordan
The Zookeeper's Wife - Diane Ackerman
Uglies - Scott Westerfield
Sarah's Quilt - Nancy E. Turner
Woman In Red - Eileen Goudge
You can't sign up for this one until the 21st, I think, but if it sounds interesting, check out Callapidder's site - it's really fun!
Hope you enjoy "Lightning Thief". Such a great series. I loved "These is My Words" by Nancy Turner but have not read "Sarah's Quilt" yet. I need to pick it up because the first one was great.
ReplyDeleteYour list looks great. I love The Lightning Thief...and The Giver....and Uglies.
ReplyDeleteYou have an awesome list! I hope you love them all!
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of any of these. I hope thaty you blog about them.

I have never gotten around to reading The Giver, although I keep meaning too! I've heard it's one of those "can't miss" books. Thanks for being part of the challenge!
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting list. Have fun reading them!
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading and welcome to the reading challenge!

Great list. I have Women in Red on my list as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks, everybody. I'm looking forward to getting started on this one. I can't wait to read everyone's lists and reviews!
ReplyDeleteSarah's quilt sounds like it would be a great read.thanks for posting it.
ReplyDeleteI have "The Lightening Thief" on my list...
ReplyDeleteMy son might like to look at your reviews...he just started his own book review blog (he's 13)...I'll have to tell him about yours!
Deena - I think that's awesome that your son has started a book blog. That's really cool. I don't always review kids' books, but I think everything on this blog is appropriate for a 13 year old.
ReplyDeleteI'm always looking at YA novels from an adult perspective - it would be really interesting to see what an actual young adult has to say about them!
