Okay, this might be the best meme ever. It was started over by Amy at My Friend Amy and I was tagged by The Literate Housewife. Here’s how it works:
I am going to list three categories of books. 3 MUST Read Books, 3 Keep Your Eyes on These, and 3 Look For These Soon. Keeping with the theme, I am going to tag at least 3 bloggers. They should put these same lists on their blog but SUBTRACT one book from each list and ADD one of their own. Then they should tag at least 3 more bloggers. It will be fun to see how the lists change as it goes around the blogosphere. Please come back to this post and leave a comment so I can see how the lists are changing as they go around the blogosphere. Since this is Book Buzz…please keep your lists to titles released in 2007-2009.
Note: I am putting links to the reviews of those I have read so far…
3 MUST Read Books:
The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson
The Monsters of Templeton by Lauren Groff
One More Year: Stories by Sana Krasikov
3 Keep Your Eyes on These:
The Memory of Water by Karen White
My Father’s Paradise by Ariel Sabar
The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson (although I would argue this should be in the ‘must read’ section)
3 Look For These Soon:
The Dracula Dossier by James Reese
Songs for the Missing by Stewart O’Nan
Aberrations by Penelope Przekop
I’m tagging the following people:
Rebecca of Readerville
Lisa of Books on the Brain
Meghan of Medieval Bookworm
I picked “One More Year” too. Definitely a must read.
This was fun, wasn’t it? I had a hard time picking which novel to put where. I ended up putting The Monsters of Templeton in the must read list because The Gargoyle has more of its own buzz right now.
