A new challenge! This one is intriguing and I love it. Originally a BookTube tag, created by BookParadise, this approach allows the reader to sample a bunch of books before deciding which one to delve into.
Challenge: Read the first chapter of 5 books.
Reading the first chapter will allow me to explore the writing styles, find out which one appeals the most, and which one sets up a story that intrigues me the most.
I've chosen five that I own and keep putting off, again and again and again. They're never going to get read. Until now.
Reflect: Keep a few handy notes, write what I like, and what makes me go "hmmmm".
Juggling a career with a hobby isn't always easy. Sampling will allow me to make sure I devote my precious reading time to something I'm invested in.
Choose: Read the book that grabs me the most.
Result: Write a second blog exploring my reading experience based on this method as well as the feelings toward the book chosen.
Good Luck!!!
Brondings' Honour ~ Ann Ewan
Cannonbridge ~ Jonathan Barnes
Daughter of the Empire ~ Raymond E. Feist
King's Dragon ~ Kate Elliott
The Thinking Woman's Guide to Real Magic ~ Emily Croy Barker
All of these are guilt books. Either I've bought them years ago, borrowed from a friend, or received as a gift.
~Happy Reading~
