The goal of the Must Read Monday is to find share your love of great books with others in the hopes that they'll add a new title to their To Be Read list.
For specific ways to build your puzzle, click here, but pretty much any style of acrostic is welcome.
When you leave comments on other posts, be sure to mention whether you're adding that book to your TBR pile, and what part convinced you to do so.
It's all about powers of persuasion, people:) You might have to think a little, but channel that inner-creative goddess (or god).
This week's category: A book so powerful that it changed you in some way.
Here is mine for this week:
Soviets Barge into her home
tEaring her family apart
She is forced onTo a train car
What is a human life Worth?
Her brothEr was worth
A pockEt watch.
ANd her father?
Sentenced
To deatH
At a prison camp
demoralizeD
torturEd
Starved
Shipped Off to Siberia
Lina Fights for her life
Sketching messaGes in her art
With incRedible strength, hope
And love
For her familY and her people
This book, Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys, really did change my heart. It moved me and it touched me. It was one of my very favorite books this year. Here is a link to my review. Everyone should read this book. I loved it. LOVED it.
Thanks to Fans of Fiction for hosting this meme. It's such a creative, fun way to start out the week. Thanks for stopping by today. Happy Monday!
Great job. I kind of love it! It doesnt seem like my kind of book, but this poem is pretty darn great!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I felt the heartache in this acrostic. Definitely putting this on my tbr list ..sounds like my kind of book.. tugs at the heart strings! --Wouldn't be surprised if you're featured next week!
ReplyDeleteWow what a wonderful unique way to do your acrostic. Your words and the unique way it is written really conveys the profound nature of the book. This is one that has been on my To Read list since I first read a review of it. I just used November's Audible credit to do download the audio and I look forward to listening to it soon. And yes, I love how a phrase in my own acrostic was the same as the title of the book you've chosen this week. :-) Thanks for stopping by my Must Read Monday!
ReplyDeleteFabulous job, as usual. I absolutely cannot say no to a WWII book. It seems like a long time since I've read a review on this, but your acrostic has seriously convinced me to read it. I wish everyone would read this just to understand. We can't let history repeat itself.
