It’s Midsummer, and another Once Upon a Time Challenge comes to a close. I read, this year:
1. Fantasy: Exile, by Anne Osterlund
Enchanted Ivy, by Sarah Beth Durst
Reckless, by Cornelia Funke
Dragonfly, by Julia Golding
Magic Under Glass, by Jaclyn Dolamore
2. Folklore: My Unfair Godmother, by Jannette Rallison
(I moved Runemarks, since after reading it I realized it was mythology and not folklore. Thankfully, Unfair Godmother involved Robin Hood, which counts. Though it also has Rumpelstiltskin, which is fairy tales…)
3. Fairy Tale: The Fairy Godmother, by Mercedes Lackey
4. Mythology: Zeus: King of the Gods and Athena: Grey-eyed Goddess, by George O’Connor
Runemarks, Joanne Harris
The Throne of Fire, by Rick Riordan
Mad Love, by Suzanne Selfors
Gods Behaving Badly, by Marie Phillips
Heavy on the mythology, which surprised me, and general fantasy, which didn’t. My favorite book out of these? Possibly The Fairy Godmother or Dragonfly, both of which were surprisingly good.
As always, thanks Carl for hosting!
Wowza. You did a great job, you read tons. Great job. I bought Throne of Fire for my son, hopefully he will like it. I think I may let him do a guest review of it.
