Summer is beginning, and that means an end to the springtime Once Upon a Time reading “challenge.” A couple weeks ago, actually…but I have a somewhat belated wrap-up post today!
This is always a laid-back challenge, and I have been particularly laid-back about it this year…because I started a new job at almost the same time the challenge began! A good problem, but still distracting…
I started well with reviews, but dropped off more recently. Here’s the break-down on fantasy reading over the past three months.
- Dearest by Alethea Kontis (fairy tale)
- The Animal Family by Randall Jarrell
- The Lost Hero and The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan (myth)
- A Question of Magic by E. D. Baker
- The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman (fairy tale)
- The Whisper by Aaron Starmer
- Seraphina and Shadow Scale by Rachel Hartman
- The Last Dragonslayer by Jasper Fforde
- Witch’s Business by Diana Wynne Jones
- Moving Pictures by Terry Pratchett
- Stolen Magic by Gail Carson Levine
- The Ugly Stepsister by Aya Ling (fairy tale)
Even if I couldn’t focus as much as I like this year, I always love this challenge! Did you participate this year? What did you read that you enjoyed?
As always Cheryl well done for reading so much for this challenge. I also took part and read 6 books (including both of yours) which I think is probably my best year ever 🙂
