Description:

This or That is a reading challenge type swap. Each month I will post a theme of two different types. It will be up to you to choose ONE of those types to use for your book to read for that month. There will be a variety of themes, in the coming months. Be on the look out for each THIS or THAT swap!

Each month I will post 2 items for you to choose from. You will choose ONE book to read from THIS or THAT ~ that I post. I will post the THIS or THAT swaps in the beginning of the month and signups will stay up through the 15th of that month. The send date will be the 13th (note of change to 13th) of the following month. That will give you a little over a month to read and send. If the swap is not sent out on or before the 13th (take note of any holidays or weekends and send prior to that), I won't allow you in the next months swap.

Choose THIS or THAT TITLES ~ One word or Multiple Words

Read THIS ~ ONE WORD TITLES or Read THAT ~ MULTIPLE WORD TITLES

  • For this one, read a book that has a ONE word title
  • OR, read a book that has FIVE or more words in the title

  • Examples of one word titles ~ Wicked, Cinder, Burn (may NOT include A, An, The..... ect, but be ONE WORD ONLY)

  • Examples of more than 5 words titles (MAY include subtitles) ~ Fantastic Beasts and where to Find them, The Tales of Beedle the Bard, The Wicked we have Done.

As with all my monthly reads, you no longer have to answer certain questions. Just make sure to write TWO full pages by hand or 1 page if typed. Here are some questions to help, if you are unsure what to write.

  • What was the book about?
  • Did you like or dislike it?
  • Who was your favorite character?
  • What was your favorite part? What was your least favorite?
  • Have you read any other books by this author?
  • Would you read any others because of this book?
  • Did you like the book from the beginning or did it take you a while to get into it?
  • Would you change anything about the book?
  • Would you ask the author a question if you could? What would you ask?
  • Would you recommend this book to other readers?
  • What surprised you the most about the book?
  • What is the significance of the title? Would you have given the book a different title? If yes, what is your title?
  • Were there any situations or characters in the book that you identified with? How?

RECAP ~

  • Pick THIS or THAT to read
  • read ONE book from this or that choices
  • Send a 2 page letter (by hand) or 1 page typed to your partner
  • tell them all about the book without spoilers

Have fun!!

Bonus ~ Read one book from each ~ THIS or THAT

Because of the upcoming holidays, and me getting this up later than normal, I've extended the due date of this one and if I run one in Nov, I will extend the date of that one as well, allowing for more time for those still wanting to do the swap.
