Follow Friday


Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It's a great way to meet new blogger friends. This weeks question is:

Q: This Sunday in the U.S. is Mother's Day, in celebration, what are some of your favorite books with strong mother/child relationships?

Whoa! I am trying to think of one. I can think of a perfect father/daughter relationship. Um, I love the relationship between Clara and her mother in Unearthly and Hallowed. Her mother is present, and actually takes the time to know what is going on with her daughter.

TGIF at GReads! is a weekly blog hop hosted by Ginger from GReads

This weeks question is

We tend to gush over those main characters the most, but what about those supporting roles? Who are some of your favorites?

I have so many. Kanin from The Immortal Rules is one for sure. Grim from The Iron Fey series. I am not sure if he counts but Magnus Bane from all of Cassandra Clare's novels would be my number one.

Happy Weekend!

    I'm seeing those books around a lot so far on the hop, but unfortunately, I haven't read them and I couldn't think of one of my own. But I do have what I've done all week!

    Happy Friday!

    Oh Magnus. Yes, I think he would make one interesting protagonist, though I'm not sure if I'd want Clare to write his story. oô It would be YA after all.

    Yup. Unearthly is definitely a good example! I don't really remember if it was through all the book, but the ending was the best :)

    I totally picked Clara/Maggie from the Unearthly series too. It's refreshing to see a YA book mom take the time to get to know her kid! New follower via GFC.
