The challenge: read the three best selling trilogies of the moment and figure out what makes them work.
The reason: Out of school English Lit Major seeks analytical challenge/homework. Also, there may be a trilogy in my future. Also, this snoop wants to see what all the fuss is about.
The books:
The Hunger Games
(in spite of my terror of violence and books where an HEA is not guaranteed)
Twilight
(in spite of my deep and abiding disinterest in vampires and anything paranormal)
Fifty Shades of Grey
(Hehe)
The inevitable truth: I’ll probably blog about my deep English Major observations. Also, I will read these books “as research” but find myself swept away and up at all hours reading them instead of exercising, eating, sleeping, writing, etc (Ok, this has already happened).
Before I start blogging about all my insights and observations…have you read any of these books? If so, which ones and what did ya think?
