What's in a Name Reading Challenge
The premise is to read six books, one of each fitting the criteria below:
- A book with up or down (or equivalent) in the title
- A book with something you'd find in your kitchen in the title
- Jack Wolf, The Tale of Raw Head and Bloody Bones
- A book with a party or celebration in the title
- Maryka Biaggio, Parlor Games (This might be a stretch!)
- Elizabeth Winder, Pain, Parties, Work: Sylvia Plath in New York, Summer 1953
- A book with fire (or equivalent) in the title
- Stephen Dobyns, The Burn Palace
- A book with an emotion in the title
- Nicola Upson, Fear in the Sunlight
- A book with lost or found (or equivalent) in the title
- D.L. Bogdan, The Forgotten Queen
- Patti Callahan Henry, And Then I Found You
- Liza Perrat, Spirit of Lost Angels
I'm glad you are doing this challenge too. Last year was first year in blog land, and I stumbled upon this challenge. I joined and really enjoyed looking for the titles to fit the criteria. This year I already have all my title listed. I may change some though as I real along. I have been having trouble of late, putting a link back to my blog post in a comment. So I will just put the url here. http://grammajudyb.blogspot.com/
