Historical Mystery Reading List
Mystery have been my favorite genre for as long as I remember & recently I’ve been really getting in classics books. The only problem is that most of the older books are soo hard to read because of the language and how things were said at that time. I really do like the older times though, so I decided to make myself a big list of historic mysteries! I have just randomly found these series to make this project, so I will discover these authors and stories as I get to them.

The Beginnings of Pride and Prejudice
Every Friday Rose City Reader hosts Book Beginnings. The goals of this meme is to share the first sentence or so of the book you are reading. I think this is a great way to introduce a new book to our blog readers. This week I will be doing one of my current reads.

Moby Dick Discussion
I recently read Moby Dick and couldn’t wait to post my Moby Dick Discussion! Totally LOVED IT! I’ve been wanted to do a discussion post for weeks…but haven’t really figured out the right questions to ask. But recently I can across a reading guide to Moby Dick as well as the book A Lifetime’s Reading and they both gave me a lot of inspiration!

Outrun the Wind by Elizabeth Tammi
This was a great book overall. I haven’t read many mythology retellings and i don’t really know much about Mythology in general but i still enjoyed the book. I was a bit confused at first….as to why Artemis had or needed huntresses… and i still dont know if that is something covered in the actually mythology, but it was still an intriguing concept. The characters were written great and were very unique but i found myself disliking most of them because of their personality. Artemis, for one, came off really rude. Atalanta was ok, but i’m not sure if i like her completely…she seems a bit cold…i kept picturing Rosalie…
