For many many reasons, not least of which is that it’s time for the Once Upon a Time challenge! YAY!
I am going to do Quest the Second again this year, which is (at least) one in each category. And because I like lists, here’s my four proposed books:
1. Fantasy: Wee Free Men, Terry Pratchett (I’ve been meaning to read this one for a couple of years now.) and/or Aurelia, by Anne Osterland
2. Fairy Tale: Fire and Hemlock, Diana Wynne Jones or The Ordinary Princess, by M.M. Kaye (I can’t decide; I may have to read both)
3. Folklore: Here Lies Arthur, Phillip Reeve (One of these years, I ought to branch out and read something other than an Arthur book… but not this year.
4. Mythology: The Last Olympian, Rick Riordan (can’t wait, can’t wait!!)
I suppose it’s mildly unreasonable to be so excited about this challenge, but there you have it: I love it, and I can’t wait!
The Book Nut 
one of these days I will have to get the Riordan books they really sound interesting.. will look forward to that review and Fire and Hemlock too!

I am so excited about The Last Olympian. I forgot to add it to my monster-list last night. But if I get it when it comes out in May–and I don’t think I could really resist–I’ll definitely be reading it!

I think you need to read both Fire and Hemlock AND The Ordinary Princess. They are both great books. Happy reading.

Great to have you in the challenge, thank you so much for signing on! I want to read Fire and Hemlock myself at some point. I’ve heard many good things about it.

You have a great list. Can you believe I’ve never read anything by Riordan before? I added The Lightning Thief to my list. Happy reading!
