The Hot Summer Reads Readathon Mini-Challenge: Page 99 Challenge #HotSummerReads2013



Kayla's Challenge:
 

Here's how it works. You pick up a book you haven't read yet but want to, go to page 99 of the book and read it (only read 99! I know sometimes it's tempting to just keep going but don't!) then you give your own synopsis of that page. NO SPOILERS. After the synopsis you say whether or not that reading page 99 made you want to read the book even more or not.


This is the book that I used for the Page 99 Challenge:

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Harry Potter, #4)




My synopsis: Harry is watching The Quidditch World Cup, and it is a very exciting game. Harry has never seen players fly like that. They are playing so fast and furiously that Harry can barely keep track of the players zipping around.

Would I want to keep reading the book based on this page? 

I didn't find that reading about this Quidditch match was  terribly exciting. Now, if Harry had been a player rather than a spectator, I might have found the page more interesting! Even so, I am still looking forward to reading more of this book.


Many thanks to Kayla from  The Bibliophilic Nerds for hosting this mini-challenge!
