Inspired by my friend, Jessica of Jessica Love Writes, I've decided to jump into Road Trip Wednesday, a blog carnival hosted by YAHighway. Each week they ask a reading- or writing-related question and everyone who wants to participate answers it on his or her own blog. Squee! So let's get crackin'...
This week's question:
You're re-reading one of your faves when someone asks the dreaded question: "What's that book about?" Give us your best off-the-cuff blurb of any book, any genre, and have your readers try to guess the title in the comments!
Here are my takes on some classics:
1. This awkward girl and her equally weird but genius brother travel through the universe with three batty old ladies to save their dad who's being held prisoner by a Huge Brain in a planet far, far away.
2. The scariest insect known to man befriends an unlikely barn mate who reeeally wishes that Denny's never invented Baconalia, and decides to save his life.
3. A group of losers go back home to fight a batshitcrazy, bloodthirsty clown.
Can you guess what they are?
All I know is #2 is Charlotte's Web.
ReplyDelete@Christina - did Baconalia give it away? ;)
ReplyDeleteHA! Baconalia!
ReplyDeleteIs #1 A Wrinkle in Time? I read it in 4th grade and hated it (sorry), but for some reason that sounds familiar.
@Jessica - Yep, A Wrinkle In Time!
