Today I am playing Six Degrees of Separation connecting the words Bout and Books using books.
ReplyDeleteHere Goes:
1. Chinese NoteBOOK is a book of poetry written in Greek by Demosthenes Agrafiotes translated from Greek by John and Angelos Sakkis. It is composed in a red and black notebook made in China.
2. The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks is the love story of Allie and Noah that will light up your heart and break it, too.
3. Spark by John Twelve Hawks is a thriller narrated by John Underwood, an assassin for Special Services of a large NY bank. It’s an intense book that’s character driven.
4. Blue Beetle Number Twelve from DC Comics is a comic by Tony Bedard, illustrated by Ig Guara. “Blue Beetle is back and he’s gonna bleed this world dry!”
5. Faralla: A Story of Loss and Hope by Vanita Oelschlager is a children’s book told by a young Beetle who makes friends with caterpillars but loses them when they take to the sky as butterflies.
6. Bout Bout by John Sakkis is a chapbook of his poetry published by Farfalla, McMillan and Parrish . John Sakkis is also the translater of Chinese Notebook, the first book in this list. Boom!
Where is everyone? Anyone else doing the Six Degrees Challenge?
