The books that you can read are: fairytale re-tellings, fantasies, folklore, or mythology. There a lot of novels coming out with that theme so I figured I'm in. After looking at the list of "Quests" I am going with "Quest the First".
In this one, you must "Read at least 5 books that fit somewhere within the Once Upon a Time criteria. They might all be fantasy, or folklore, or fairy tales, or mythology…or your five books might be a combination from the four genres."
Here's a list of possible books that I might read:
- Beastly by Flinn
- When Rose Wakes by Golden
- The Goddess Test by Carter
- Dust City by Weston
- Ash by Lo
- Huntress by Lo
- Another Pan by Nayeri
- Mistwood by Cypress
- Dark Mirror by Putney
- Graceling by Cashore
- Abandon by Cabot
So if fairytale re-tellings are your thing, I'd suggest you hop on over and sign up!
I'd never heard of Dust City--it looks crazy good! I'm definitely adding that one to my list :)
ReplyDeleteI'm doing this too! I have a monthly feature for fairytale retellings on my blog, and it seemed silly not to, really! Very excited about it :-)
ReplyDeleteI love fairytale retellings. I haven't read any of those yet, but I have seen Red Riding Hood and thought it was a fantastic take on Little Red Riding Hood.
ReplyDeleteVery cool challenge! I'm already doing this on my own though so I don't think I need to sign up for the reading. Good luck. :)
ReplyDeleteGraceling and Ash were both very good books. :)
ReplyDeleteNice list! I've read Graceling, and it was great. But the others are all on my "To be read someday" list! Happy Reading!
