The TBR Mini Challenge - Hosted by Musings of a Bookshop Girl
Five Books at the Top of My TBR:

2. The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater - I loved the first book in this series
3. True Crime edited by Lee Gutkind - this is from Librarything, need to review
4. Necessary Errors by Caleb Crain - New Yorker recommended this
5. The Beginning of Everything by Robyn Shneider - I should read more contemporary
Five Books on My Wishlist
1. Of Beast and Beauty by Stacey Jay - Fairytale retelling!
2. Narrative Comprehension and Film by Edward Branigan - I'm fascinated by the mechanics of storytelling in all its forms
3. In the House upon the Dirt between the Lake and the Woods by Matt Bell -This could be interesting or possibly terrible
4. Sea Change by S.M Wheeler - This sounds right up my alley
5.Trick or Treat: A History of Halloween - Don't judge me
Bout of Books Day 4 Update
These past couple of days have been hectic so I haven't really been getting an appreciable amount of reading done. But I thought this challenge was awesome so here it is:
Bookish Mad Libs Challenge:
Hosted by The Space Between
A. The River of No Return by Bee Ridgway
B. The Trunchbull - Matilda by Roald Dahl
C. A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray
D. One Thousand and One Nights: A Retelling by Hanan Al-Shaykh
E. Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
F. Captain Wentworth - Persuasion by Jane Austen
G. Enemy Pie by Derek Munson
It is very Great and Terrible here!
(He/She) is demanding One Thousand and One Fangirl(s) to set me free!
I have just discovered that Captain Wentworth was captured too!
On second thought, please send Enemy Pies, and don't worry if you don't hear from us for awhile!
Much Love,
Jaime
