Ever since I began blogging, I've been intrigued by the RIP Challenge, hosted by Carl of
Stainless Steel Droppings, in the fall. I have no idea how I've missed that Carl also has been hosting a spring challenge called
Once Upon A Time. This is a challenge custom made for me - there are four genres of books that are included in the challenge: fairy tale, folklore, fantasy and mythology. Given the number of books I've committed to for review in the coming months, I'm hesitant to jump into this challenge. But since I can also make it work with other challenges I'm participating in, I'm going to push myself a bit a join at the Quest the Second level which means that I'll be reading one book from each category between now and June 19th.
There is also a Short Story Quest and Quest on Screen and I'm planning to participate in both of those as well.
As you know, I'll have no trouble picking out books for the fairy tale and mythology genres and I think I've already chosen my folklore book but I need your help with the fantasy book. What would you suggest?
I love fairy tales. Do you watch either of the new shows related to them? We've been watching Grimm.
ReplyDeleteI am a new reader to your blog, but you might think of browsing through the other lists that participants have came up with for book recommendations.
ReplyDeleteI love Carl's RIP Challenge. I have never been brave enough to add this challenge to my list. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see what you're going to read for this challenge!!
