Wordy Wednesday (#6)



Wordy Wednesday is a meme that focuses on expanding vocabulary for aspiring writers or even finding out new words. All that is required is coming up with a word and its definition!

My word for this week is opprobrium.

Opprobrium - something that brings disgrace
                       contempt or reproach (Merriam-Webster)

Let's take the quote I used from Mulan in one of my previous memes and replace the word dishonor.
Opprobrium on you! Opprobrium on your cow!

This will forever be one of the best quotes.

    I just found your blog and I love it! I also really like the idea of this weekly meme!
    By the way it's funny because I'm italian and the word "obbrobrio" similar to the word of this Wordy Week, is a common word, so I instinctively know the meaning of that one!

      Thank you! That's really neat how uncommon words in one language or frequently used in another.

The Sword of Summer Review

Image
The Sword of Summer  is the first book in the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series, written by Rick Riordan. The genre is mythology. "Magnus Chase has always been a troubled kid. Since his mother’s mysterious death, he’s lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, keeping one step ahead of the police and the truant officers. One day, he’s tracked down by a man he’s never met—a man his mother claimed was dangerous. The man tells him an impossible secret: Magnus is the son of a Norse god. The Viking myths are true. The gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Trolls, giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok, Magnus must search the Nine Worlds for a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years. When an attack by fire giants forces him to choose between his own safety and the lives of hundreds of innocents, Magnus makes a fatal decision. Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die . . ."~ Goodreads As

Harry Potter Book Tag

Today I'm going to be doing the Harry Potter Book Tag. I love the series and this tag is amazing. The spell images were created by Beatrice over at Dreamland Book Blog . Without further ado, let's get started. I would personally like to rewrite the ending to Uncle Tom's Cabin . It's not my favorite book, though some of Stowe's arguments were interesting. But I didn't like how one of the events happened at the end; it seemed unrealistic. So many. Percy Jackson for  starters. However, the prize for this one is going to Maze of Bones . I was initially against reading the series, but then I read the first book. From then on I flew threw the first two series and read several of the other books as well. Happy memories. From: Percy Jackson: Camp Half-Blood Confidential. It's out already, but I really would like to have it so I can read it. (Hopefully there's some jokes.) I'm going to use the word killer in the sense it means awesome.
