Here’s my own list for the Mythopoeic Award Challenge (which I’m running here at Foxy Writer!)
- Red Moon and Black Mountain by Joy Chant.
- Inkheart by Cornelia Funke.
- Unicorn Mountain by Michael Bishop.
- Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrel by Susanna Clarke.
- Solstice Wood by Patricia A McKillip.
- Owl in Love by Patrice Kindl.
- The Ladies of Grace Adieu by Susanna Clarke.
Unicorn Mountain sounded strange, and I like strange, so I figure that’s my total shot in the dark for this challenge. Although, I guess the same could be said for Owl in Love.
[EDIT: I've made some adjustments in the list since including the nominees list as part of the challenge. I'll still be reading A Midsummer Tempest, but since it's on my list for What's In A Name?, I swapped it out here with Inkheart, currently sitting on my shelf, loaned to me by one of my nieces possibly more than a year ago. I also have too much non-fiction waiting to be read here, so I swapped The Lord of the Rings: A Reader's Companion with The Ladies of Grace Adieu.]
We’ll both be reading Inkheart! I’m a big fan of Susanna Clarke, so I hope you’ll enjoy her. :) I’m really looking forward to reading all of the particiaptns’ reviews, since I used to really love fantasy and want to get back into the genre.
Inkheart is another one my niece insisted that I read. I think I’ll enjoy it. I’ve had Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell on my bookshelf for quite awhile now so this challenge is a way for me to make sure it gets read. :) Fantasy is my first love, but I read romances most of my teenage and early adult years, so I feel like I’ve missed a lot of good stuff. I’m hoping to catch up a bit this year. :)
I hope you enjoy Jonathan Strange, I read it last year and loved it. I will be reading The Ladies of Grace Adieu this year as well and if I have time Inkheart too. WIll be fun to read your reviews.
