Historical fiction is my first love it’s the genre I really fell in love with as a young adult myself. Maybe one day.įever 1793? Ah, now that’s an entirely different story. I even brought Speak home from the library not too long ago and gave it a spot on my nightstand, but I just wasn’t in the mood for a trip into the alternate universe of YA novel high school then. I chose this book because I have never read anything by Anderson, although I am well aware of her fame in the angst-ridden, problematic world of YA fiction, particularly for her novel Speak (you can read a host of publishing-world reviews here and Semicolon’s review here). And so, I begin.įor my first pick, I chose Laurie Halse Anderson’s Fever 1793 from the YA shelf, section A. This actually sounds like a lot of fun to me, but since I’m pretty sure that when it’s all said and done, I will have done that eventually, though not in any organized way, I decided to give myself a similar challenge.
Back last month, Carrie of Reading to Know had the crazy brilliant idea to read every picture book in her public library and her new blog, Reading My Library, was born.
