Book Traveling Thursdays #6 – Book with a Red Cover

Published on May 18, 2017August 13, 2017 by Breanna3 Comments

Book Traveling Thursdays is a weekly meme hosted by Danielle @ Danielle’s Book Blog and Cátia @ The Girl Who Read Too Much. Each week, you pick a book related to the theme and choose different editions of the cover: the original cover, the cover from your country (if different from the original), your favorite cover, and your least favorite cover. To see more information and a list of themes check out the Goodreads page!

This week the theme was to select a book with a red cover, which is fitting since the last Book Traveling Thursday was a blue cover book. I chose The Mime Order, which the second book in Samantha Shannon’s The Bone Season series; a young adult paranormal/fantasy series about clairvoyants set in futuristic London. I’m a big fan of these books, so if you haven’t checked it out, you should!

Book Traveling Thursdays #5 – Book with a Blue Cover

This week the theme was to select a book with a blue cover. I chose one of my favorite historical fiction novels, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend it! It’s a stunningly beautiful book about two different characters during World War II-a blind French girl and a German boy-whose paths eventually cross as they struggle to survive the war.

Book Traveling Thursdays #4 – Book Set in a Fictional World

This week’s topic asks us to choose a book set in a fictional world. As an avid fan of fantasy novels, I had plenty to choose from. I decided to go with a favorite of mine and chose The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski. The world-building of those books was so phenomenal and interesting to me, completely drawing me into the intricate plot and storyline. All of the editions of this book were pretty much the same, with slight variations, so it was kind of difficult to pick between them!

Book Traveling Thursdays #2 – Book Written By a Favorite Author

Published on November 3, 2016August 13, 2017 by Breanna1 Comment

National Author’s Day was a couple of days ago, so we were asked to pick a book written by one of our favorite authors. I only have a few authors that I absolutely adore, but I decided to choose Mistress of Rome by Kate Quinn. Not only is Kate Quinn one of my favorite authors, but her book is my all time favorite! If anyone is looking to check out an incredible historical fiction book, I highly recommend Mistress of Rome. There are four books in total in the series (I skipped the second though, it’s more of a prequel) and they’re all amazing!

Book Traveling Thursdays #1 – Book Featuring Mental Health

Published on October 20, 2016August 13, 2017 by Breanna3 Comments

This week’s theme is mental awareness and we were asked to choose a book that deals with mental health. I chose All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven. After going through my books, I realized I haven’t read many that focus on mental health, but All the Bright Places stuck out to me the most.
