From IB Book Blogging:
There will be two winners today. The winners will each get to choose from four mythology books that I have in my giveaway pile. They include an ARC of Die for Me by Amy Plum, an ARC of Wildefire by Karsten Knight, Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini, Darkness Becomes Her by Kelly Keaton. That sounds awesome, right?? You can post your response to the questions on your blog, twitter, or facebook. Winners will be selected at random from each linky after the read-a-thon ends on July 13th at 11:59 p.m. Make sure to answer both questions and put your link to the answers in the linky below Question 2.
What is your favorite type of myth (Greek, Roman, Egyptian etc)?
I am definitely going to have to go with Greek Mythology. While Egyptian is interesting, I could never remember all the different gods and goddesses and their stories. I have a good memory when it comes to Greek. Maybe it has to do with all my background in history. Maybe because of all my reading. Maybe I watched too many Greek myth related movies as a child. (I'm talking about you Clash of the Titans! -- definitely not the new one) And Roman mythology is just Greek with some Etruscan influences. Definitely Greek!!!
Mini Challenge Question 2:
What is your favorite book with some type of mythology in it?
Since I love Greek mythology, is it any wonder that I thoroughly devoured the Percy Jackson series? I read the series to my boys for their nighttime book, but I think I enjoyed them way more that the boys did. I absolutely loved the series. And we finally picked up
The Lost Hero
. So I can now start on the new series!
