BBAW DAY 3: UNEXPECTED TREASURES

Little late with my post, but BBAW's day three themed topic is:

Book bloggers can be some of the most influential people around!  Today we invite you to share with us a book or genre you tried due to the influence of another blogger.  What made you cave in to try something new and what was the experience like?

Because of book blogs I was introduced to the dystopian genre.  I know I probably read this genre in the past, but I never knew that it had its own classification until I started blogging.  I really was not influenced by a particular blog to discover this, but actually was influenced by many blogs in the book blog blogosphere.  Here are the dystopian books I have read since starting my blog last year (click on the titles to read my reviews):

The Road--Cormac McCarthy

Winter's End--Jean-Claude Mourlevat

The Hunger Games--Suzanne Collins









Happy BBAW!

Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. It means so much.

I apologize for word verification, but as soon as I changed the settings from only users with Google accounts, I started receiving a ton of spam comments...within one hour of changing the settings. The bots are on high alert apparently.

    I probably wouldn't have read The Hunger Games if it wasn't for all the buzz around the blogs!

    I loved the Hunger Games, too. And The Road has been in my To Buy list for a while now. I should probably get around to finally getting it.:)
