Historical fiction writer Teralyn Rose Pilgrim of A Writer's Journey is organising the Favourite Book Challenge Blogfest.
Between June 20 and 22 2011, participants will each pick their top 5 favourite books, describe in 1 line what each book is about, and in another line why they like it.
With a title and a challenge like that, how could I not take part?
I expect it will be a great opportunity to connect with other book lovers. As a bonus, it will be great practice to try and summarise the essence of a book in just one line.
If you want to join in, you can sign up at Teralyn's blog. I hope to see you there! :-)

I like your description of yourself as an analytical, emotional creature. Nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you. :-) I borrowed the emotional creature' part from Eve Ensler. The analytical, well, that's just very true as well. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for spreading the word about my blogfest! I'm super excited about it and I'm glad people are joining in.
ReplyDeleteOh this sounds like fun, thanks for sharing! I think I am going to end up addicted to blogfests. :D
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good one! I'll have to check it out!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a good one - thanks for the tip! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool blogfest! Thanks for letting us know.
ReplyDeleteTeralyn: you're very welcome. It's a cool idea. :-)
ReplyDeleteJulie: After the A to Z in April, I try to avoid taking part in too many, except when I really like the idea. :-)
Talli: I agree. It'll be fun to meet a few more book enthusiasts and discover their reading interests. :-)
Jemi: you're very welcome. Hope to see you there. :-)
Clarissa: I thought so too. See you around! :-)
Sounds like a fun Blogfest, although I do struggle with those one sentence descritpions. I'm in.
ReplyDeleteStephen: yes, that'll be the tricky bit. Well, that and choosing only 5 books. :-)
ReplyDeletedon't think I could make my top five fav book list, I had problems making my top five films list last year :)
ReplyDeleteDEZZ: choices, choices! :-) I'm not sure how I'll manage to reduce my list to just 5, but it's still 8 days away. :-) I might have to cheat!
