The Seafaring Challenge II – Sign Up

This challenge is for those who love seafaring tales! And since there are so many types of books out there that feature this theme, your reading possibilities are endless – nonfiction, history, true-life accounts, genre fiction, literature, historical and contemporary works, young adult, mystery, fantasy, science fiction, romance – the list could go on and on!

Although there are a few guidelines for this challenge, the basic criteria for any book is simply that it must feature something nautical.

Here are some definitions that may help you in deciding if your book fits the challenge:

Relating to or involving the sea, shipping, vessels & their operation including living & working at sea.

Relating to or involving ships or shipping or navigation or seamen.

Having to do with boats, ships, or sailing.

There can be naval officers, pirates, buried treasure, U-Boats, submarines, sailors, dragons, fairies! There can even be “fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles…”! :) Even spaceships count! What’s not to love about having all that reading room?

Guidelines

1. Read 10 nautical themed books in 2009.

2. You can join at anytime.

3. Overlapping with other challenges is fine.

4. When you sign up using Mr. Linky, please list the direct link to your challenge post/page where your books will be listed. If you just list your blog’s URL, your link will be removed.

5. If you will be posting your challenges in your sidebar, please put a button and link up before you sign up for the challenge.

6. You do not have to list your books ahead of time. If you decide to, you can change them as you go. Feel free to remove or add titles as needed.

Other Notes:

Since I have started this challenge after the start of 2009, any nautical themed books you have already read in 2009 can be used for this challenge.
