Attack of the 50 Foot Wallflower

Attack of the 50 Foot Wallflower | Christian McKay Heidicker

Good morning. I‘ll be jumping back in to #24in48 in a few minutes but I wanted to get my challenge done first.

Anyone who pays attention to what I read knows I‘m a big SFF nut. These are just the books under my TV and as you can see all but about 6 could be used for any #SFFchallenge. That includes the the books Upstairs in my un-air conditioned library (and it‘s currently 87F ). It is the same type of picture.

I proudly wave my geek flag.

So I am once again participating in #MakeMeReadIt. You my friends get to pick one book I will read in July. I may read more, but I only promise one has I have other reading commitments.

You get to choose between 2 mg, 2 ya, and 2 adult titles.

Kill the Farm Boy: The Tales of Pell

TEArificbooks Year one 6y

theresidentromantic Kill the Farmboy was amazing, but I'd read a sample first. It requires a specific kind of humor. I loved it, bought a pretty edition and begged my fiance to read it and he gave it back to me like I'm sorry, I love you, I refuse to read anymore of this book lol 6y

Trashcanman This one, or else.

First Blood

LibrarianRyan @theresidentromantic thanks. I‘ve read many of the same authors Hounded books. 6y

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman I don‘t own that one. But I can get a copy. And I will read it but I need a little quid pro quo. It will take me a bit to determine which book you should read if you want to accept this challenge. šš 6y

Trashcanman @LibrarianRyan OH it's on! But! You have to match that word count or less! Deal? 6y

theresidentromantic @LibrarianRyan Trust me! So have both of us, Atticus has pride of place on one of our bookshelves, this is only barely similar. 6y

LibrarianRyan @theresidentromantic ohhhh. Thanks for the heads up. 6y

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman deal. I have an idea but I have to check word count. 6y

theresidentromantic @LibrarianRyan Yep! I really hope you love it, but I'd feel bad if it was selected and then you were like what is this? Lol No snarky Atticus here. Just the weirdest D&D campaign ever. 6y

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman I am going to let you choose between 2. And I am picking 2 books I absolutely love. Probably out of your comfort zone, but so is First Blood for me. 6y

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman option 1. Space, not a frontier but a life line. The best description of cryo freezing ever. No relationship to the Beatles.

Across the Universe

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman option 2. A fantastic retelling of Alice in Wonderland. No magic just imagination.

The Looking Glass Wars

Trashcanman @LibrarianRyan these word counts are comparable?. 6y

LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman apparently my copy of Across the universe is not. Just thin page. Looking glass wars Yes. My research shows first blood is between 75-80,000 words. LGW is 71773 by official AR count 6y
