November Challenge: The Killing Moon by N.K. Jemisin
And now, the results of November's poll, Oscar-Bait!
November's poll didn't take long to find it's leader, and honestly, I can't say I'm surprised by the title that took the lead. After 26 votes, the winner is….
The Killing Moon (2012)
Written by: N.K. Jemisin
Theme: Oscar-Bait
ISBN: 978-0316187282
I've been wanting to read this sucker ever since its release. I almost picked it up earlier this year, but it looks rather thick in person, and I decided to get it on the Kindle instead. And when that happens, it seems to take FOREVER for me to pick something up. Thankfully, November will give me just the excuse I needed to finally download a copy, and I can't wait to see what Jemisin does next!
Who can participate?
Anyone who's interested in the book. You don't have to have an LJ to participate in the challenge. Just read the book sometime between NOW and the month of NOVEMBER and then feel free to engage in discussion at the end of the month. Or, if you have a book blog of your own, post your review there and provide me with a link in mine. :) For your sake, I'll hold off posting my review until the end of NOVEMBER so no one feels rushed to finish the book. I want people to read at their own speed and to enjoy themselves.
As always, feel free to talk about the book challenge and encourage others to read what you are. After all, the more the merrier!
When do I participate?
Any time between NOW and November 30th. As long as you read the selection within this particular time frame, you've participated. This way, if you're a slower reader, you've got much more time. :) And if you're a fast reader, and want to participate in the discussion with the book fresh on your mind, then go ahead and wait until November!
How do I participate?
Get your hands on the book. You can buy, borrow, or swap, but please try and get your hands on the book. If you're having trouble finding this book, let me know and I'll try and point you in the right direction. Both physical and electronic copies of this book are available. But seriously, if you DO have trouble finding the book, let me know! But don't delay! Get your copy now!
But what if I've already read this book? How do I participate then?
Same as you normally would, but without reading. Comment to the review and discussion when it's posted, and if there's a poll, answer the questions. If you have a review, make sure you shoot me the link. You can choose to re-read the book for the challenge if you WANT, but I won't think any less of you if you decide not to.
Okay, okay, okay! But what about NEXT'S month's challenge? Taking suggestions for that?
Nope. The year is over, and December is sponsored. And that will be it for Theme Park!
