In lieu of not being with my Fathers on Father’s Day (sorry to my two favorite men! I will be home from NY soon to celebrate!!), I decided to share two books with you that are currently topping my list o’ things I enjoy:
~ One that I read and then re-read immediately because it was so delicious ~ Emily The Strange, The Lost Days. (I posted the book trailer here.)
~ And another that I am in midst of reading but find too fantastic not to share ~ The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. (Not a difficult choice to pick this one up as it’s been on bestseller lists and has won the Newbery medal.)
At looking at the cover of these two novels, it appears as if I’ve suddenly garnered great fondness for the dark side (er…gone goth?), but rest assured, I still love puppies and sunshine and jasmine tea.
Anyway, if you can’t spend the day with your dad, for whatever reason, I recommend you pick up a good read and head to the park, the beach, your couch, or wherever you can find a reading nook/cranny. (Sunshine and jasmine tea optional.)
Enjoy and happy Father’s Day!
Fantasy seems to have entered my life.
I’m not usually drawn to fantasy as a general category but it seems to be finding me with very little effort at the moment. From reading Neil Gaiman to hearing Melissa Marr and Kristen Cashore (writers of NY Times Bestselling books that could be considered YA Fantasy) speak, to now reading their respective books (Graceling and Wiked Lovely). And to top it off (presumably? perhaps this will continue?), today on Notcot these adorable paintings featured on Small and Round were calling my name:
How great are these?
Well, I didn’t consciously invite you over, but, Hello Fantasy. Come on in.
