October Contest

The contest this month wants to give away one of two books: The Fire Within or Goddess Girls: The Girl Games.

                                           
The Back of The Book

   When David moves in with Elizabeth Pennykettle and her eleven-year-old daughter, Lucy, he discovers a collection of clay dragons that come to life. David's own special dragon inspires him to write a story, which reveals the secrets behind a mystery. In order to solve the mystery and save his dragon, David must master the magic  of the fire within- not only with his hands but also with his         heart.





The Back of The Book


     Artemis, Presephone, Aphrodite, and Athena- the four most popular goddessgirls at MOA- are finally getting a chance to hold a girls-only Olympic Games.
     But organizing visiting athletes isn't easy. Artemis is trying to hard to do everything herself, Athena's in trouble over a winged horse named Pegasus, and Aphrodite and Presephone are fighting over a lost kitten named Adonis. Will everything come together in the end? Or will these Olympics be memorable for all the wrong reasons?

Pecy Jackson Series

Okay, so, my friends finally convinced me to read the Percy Jackson series after a long time (THANK YOU PAIGE AND SKYE), and I am so grateful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have not exactly finished it but I am on the Battle of the Labyrinth. I am almost finished with that one though.
     Oh! I also went to the Rick Riordan book signing in Winston Salem. I got his new book, The Mark of Athena and I got an orange Camp Half-Blood T-shirt.
     My friend Elena got this awesome book that I have never seen before. It was a Red Pyramid comic book. It was pretty cool. Also speaking of The Kane Chronicles, who else is sad that the Kane Chronicles is just a TRILOGY!}:(
      Okay and one last thing. During Rick's speech at Wake Forest University, he revealed that his upcoming books were going to be about Norse Gods (Thor, Loki, etc.) So yeah I would like to see what you all think about that.
Do you think the combination with Roman, Greek, and Norse Gods is to much?
Do you think it will be confusing?
Do you think it will be just fine?
Please Explain
Happy Reading!
