Challenges Oct. 2017

Challenge: 10 Years in 10 Books  

 My book recommendations for 2007-2017

2007-I wasn't apart of Goodreads in 2007, but I did look up books published that year. The one that stands out is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. I don't think I went to the midnight release, but I did show up slightly after when the lines were gone and bought the book. Then I preceded to read until I was finished. I ignored everyone and everything.

2008-I couldn't decide between 3 books. The Hunger Games, The Host, and The Summoning. All three of these books I have read multiple times and I recently was planning on reading The Summoning by Kelley Armstong again. I will have to check it out from the library. It is the only one I do not own. I would like to find it in hard back and buy it.
 
2009-The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong and Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

2010-The Reckoning by Kelley Armstrong and I Am Number Four by Pitticus Lore 

2011-Ghost Story by Jim Butcher

2012-Cold Days by Jim Butcher

2013-Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

2014-Cress by Marissa Meyer

2015-The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah

2016-Remembrance by Meg Cabot

2017-I don't have a recommendation for this year. I guess I haven't read a new book.

I just went to my shelf and pulled down a handful. I added Princess Anna, because I love that there is a Disney Princess with my name pronounced and spelled the same way.

Original paragraph

"Kira Listened, Laughing, to the wails as Thomas mercilessly scrubbed both Matt and Branch in his bathroom tub. "Not me hairs too?" Matt howled in protest as Thomas poured water over his tangled mop of hair. "You're drownding me!"

Mad Lib (my children answered)

"Chelsy Listened, Pooping, to the wails as Bob mercilessly Hunted both Bill and Hunter in his Bedroom pencil. "Not me toes too?" Anna Jumped in protest as Carlos ran water over his green mop of nose. "You're drownding me!"
