VOTE: July Challenge
It seems that announcing challenges two months in advance is working out for some people, especially for those of you battling library waiting lists, so unless I get an outraged cry to STOP announcing these so early, let's move on to July's vote, shall we?
The theme: Cats in Fantasy
Yes, I'm serious. It's the July theme, which means summer's in full force, and we need SOMETHING fun, right? I can't think of anything MORE fun than reading a fantasy novel that stars cats. :) Of course, as I've not actually read one before, let alone any of these choices, this could TOTALLY backfire. But I love cats, and I hope to be entertained. I hope you are too!
So here's what I was able to dig up (with the help of some of you, so many thanks):
Peter S. Beagle: Tamsin
Tanya Huff: Summon the Keeper
Shirley Rousseau Murphy: The Catsworld Portal
Tad Williams: Tailchaser's Song
Remember, pick the book that interests you the most. Even if this isn't your genre of choice, the idea is to challenge yourself. Read something new. You never know, you might like it. :)
Know what you want to read? Then it's time to vote!
Poll July Challenge
Please note, I will not vote unless it is to break a tie.
You've got until midnight, Wednesday May 12th to make your decision. Vote for the book that YOU want to read the most, and if you're torn, tough. You gotta pick one. :) If you've already read ALL of the books, pick the one you'd most like to re-read. If you're not participating, then maybe next month will bring something more to your liking. :)
I'll announce the official winner on May 13th, so don't pick up your copy (whether you buy or borrow) until I make it official. Unless, of course, all of these books are so appealing to you that you must have them all. In that case, have fun and start reading! :)
