Thirstday!

As a blogger, I love memes. They are a good framework for writing my posts.
Here's a new one for Thursdays. My friend David started #Thirstday over at his blog Eat the Book. With this meme, we post a beverage and a book.



So, in the interest of creativity and writing today, my combo is:



  • Water in my favorite snowman cup
  • Three books: INSURGENT by Veronica Roth, CODE NAME VERITY by Elizabeth Wein, and CREATING INNOVATORS by Tony Wagner

I've had a really hard time deciding what to read these days (vacation days). So I usually have a few books going. Both INSURGENT & CODE NAME VERITY are the two YA Nerdy Award winners I haven't read yet, so I'm reading both. I think reading several books at one time helps me finish books faster.

The Tony Wagner book was a gift, and I've heard great things about it, too. I read Wagner's first book, THE GLOBAL ACHIEVEMENT GAP, a couple of years ago.

I think the water goes well with INSURGENT. After all, these books are about survival! I'm trying to drink more water these days, and Tris is just trying to make it through the day!
