for always giving me a heads up on Twitter when she puts the new tag up.
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
1. WHAT IS A BOOK COVER THAT REMINDS YOU OF THANKSGIVING?
GOODREADS
Because the guitars always come out at some point in the day, whether it is at my house or a friend's. Plus, people are always talking about their guitar Christmas wishlist at the table!
♦♦♦
2. TWO AUTHORS YOU ARE THANKFUL FOR.
Madeline L'Engle for sparking my deep love of Science Fiction in third grade (eight years old).
And J.K. Rowling for creating a series that was the foundation of a major bonding experience for our family.
3. A BOOK YOU LIKED BUT WOULDN'T READ TWICE.
4. WHICH FIVE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS WOULD YOU LIKE TO INVITE TO THANKSGIVING DINNER?
Atticus Finch
Scout Finch
Jem Finch
Calpurnia
Boo Radly
5. WHAT IS A BOOK THAT IS STUFFED WITH ACTION.
Native American faerie action! Yeah, think about that. File this under ultra-unique.

6. IF YOU COULD MAKE ANY FOOD ITEM FROM A BOOK, AND SERVE IT FOR THANKSGIVING, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Applesauce is one of the foods served in A CHRISTMAS CAROL for holidays feasts. I make a rustic brown applesauce that my uncle's wife, who was Welsh, always made for Sunday dinners. It is chunky, very sweet, and has a lot of cinnamon in it. My son hates it, and because it takes some work to make, I only make it for Thanksgiving now.
7. ONE FALL-ISH BOOK OTHERS SHOULD READ FOR THANKSGIVING.
I think because it is about family love, trust, and loyalty it is a wonderful Thanksgiving read. Plus, it is about sisters, and I am always very thankful for my little sister!

8. Two books you are thankful for.
These were the two books that started my reading passion.

9. WHICH TWO BOOKS MASHED TOGETHER WOULD YOU LIKE TO READ?
10. IN GENERAL WHAT ARE YOU THANKFUL FOR THIS YEAR?
My son was seriously ill from 16 to 21. Last year and this year he has been doing really well, and getting better every day, so that is something to be extremely thankful for.
Katherine from I WISH I LIVED IN A LIBRARY also felt bookishly thankful, and you can find her tag post, HERE.
What a fantastic tag! And how interesting. I love your choices. I'm so glad your son is doing well this year. How wonderful for you and for him! I've been wanting to reread Little Women for awhile so maybe now's the time to do it!
ReplyDeletePS I may have to borrow this!
I love Little Women because it is feminist, too, and in a way that values the feminine way and not asking women to be more masculine to be seen as equals. I might give it a reread, too!
DeleteWhat a cool tag!
ReplyDeleteAnd improving and good health is always something to be thankful of, so glad that Sebastian continues to be more and more healthy!
With my job I'm grateful every day that my family is as healthy as they are and hope that they will continue to be so!
When we first moved to the apartment where we are now I moaned and complained because it was so small and had no outdoor space, but after Sebastian got sick and at one point I thought I might lose him, my idea of thankfulness changed immensely!
DeleteWhat a great tag and I am so thankful that your son is doing well!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of buying a Wrinkle in Time, have seen the normal paperback but there is also a graphic novel which I fancy trying too.
Yes! I want the graphic novel, too! I requested it on Edelweiss, but the publishers never approved or declined. I hate when they do that. I think it would be s great book to read with your daughter, too. 😀
DeleteNative Americans with faeries?!? OKAY YES. That sounds ultra super mega unique. XD And I would so be up for Inkheart mashed with The Never Ending Story!! :P That is awesome your son is recovering...definitely something to be thankful for. :')
ReplyDeleteI love The Glittering World! It is one of the few books I have wanted to reread right away. I have not read The Neverending Story yet, but from seeing the movie, I think it would blend together well with Inkheart. ☺
