This is a fun meme to do at the end of the year as you reflect on all the book titles you've read throughout the year. This year marks the third year I've done this one, so it's officially become an annual tradition for me. I was thrilled to see so many of you joining this meme in the last two years and I hope you decide to do it this year, too! Hopefully you've kept track of what you read this year! It helps.
If you decide to do this meme--which I hope you all do!-- please come back and add your post below with Mr. Linky. This way we can find everyone's posts easily. After you've posted your meme, simply type your name in the top box below and copy and paste the link to your My Life According to the Books I Read in 2011 post on your blog in the link box. I hope you join in--it's a lot of fun! I can't wait to see what answers you come up with!
Using only titles of books that you read this year (2011), complete the prompts below. Try not to repeat any book titles. Think creatively and have fun!

ReplyDeleteI've done this meme the past two years and it reflects my life -- to a point -- and I can see what changes there have been over the years. It is a very nice meme to do annually not to mention a great reading tradition. :)
Loved Majia's First Day of Forever... great answer :)

ReplyDeleteI just read Nath's answers.
ReplyDeleteLove yours - they fit you so well. :)
I love this! I did it last year but think I was too late to link up. It was fun. Thanks for hosting and inspiring me and others! :)
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know I participated in the meme. Oh, and tried the "linky" thing. It doesn't seem to like me. *g*
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun way to remember your yearly reads!! I don't think I read enough books to have any clever answers but I like yours--especially the Dragon Bound transportation. Will remember this next year if you do again.
