The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of Parajunkee’s View and Alison of Alison Can Read. Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs!
I haven’t done one of these for ages but I’ve decided to start doing them again because of my move to WordPress and I’m hoping to find lots of new blogs, too.
This week’s question is…
Back to school. Create a reading list for the imaginary English Lit class you’ll be teaching this semester.
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett is one of my favourite classics and so this is an obvious choice for me. I’ve studied it myself and it really sparked my love for the book.
If we’re talking about more contemporary texts then I think something like The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, or My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult would be good. I haven’t finished My Sister’s Keeper yet but I’ve loved what I’ve read of it so far.
Leave the links to your own posts below and I’ll give you a follow! Bloglovin’ is my preferred method, or using the WordPress following option. Or you can follow using RSS/email by going to the sidebar or in my header. Thank you!

10 August, 2013 at 7:18 pmI’m ashamed to say that I’ve never read The Secret Garden! I’ve been meaning to for years now, and I’m glad to hear you’re a fan. The Fault in Our Stars is another one I need to read. Maybe I should be in your lit class. 😉
Thanks for sharing!
