May/Jun Nominations: MYTHOLOGY!
What about Gospel of Loki? :) it's about Loki from Norse Mythology. The only problem about reading this book is: It took me soooooo long to get to the half of it. Soo.. i have no idea if it's OK to be a readalong....
American Gods by Neil Gaiman would fit the theme. A very good book, features a wide range of gods from different mythologies.Along the same note also Anansi Boys by Gaiman, follows the lives of sons of African trickster god Anansi.
Gospel of Loki in on my tbr, so I'd be happy to read it and I don't mind slower books. :)
Maybe Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout, I haven't read it yet but I'm pretty sure it has to do with mythology :)
Half Blood by Jennifer L Armentrout sounds awesome!

Hmmm, of course I'd recommend any Rick Riordan book :P
I agree, Rick riordan is excellent with this kind of books
The Kane chronicles by Rick Riordan (the first book in the trilogy)
As much as I would want to say a Rick Ruordan Book I can't cuz.........I've read all that are thereHowever American Gods by Neil Gaiman would be an interesting read.......
I haven't read the Kane Chronicles and this is going to sound bad, but I haven't read the Lost hero either so I'm going with Rick Riordan!

American Gods seems excellent, I really want to finish this. Rick Riordan's Kane Chronicles are also on my to read list. So either would be fine.
what about
witches of east end by melissa de la cruz? there r witches and norse mythology !!! :D
I love the American Gods idea. I've already read it but it's been a while and I would not mind a reread!
The first book in The Kane chronicles trilogy by Rick Riordan sounds really good(it's about Egyptian mythology)
American gods by Neil Gaiman, would be great in my opinion!
Either Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, The Kane Chronicles Book 1 or American Gods They all sound great plus I have been looking for a reason to read Percy Jackson!
Witches of East End sounds really intriguing! But I don't know if it would have enough mythology in it, though if it does then I'd love to read the book for this club
I'd like to read The Kane Chronicles. Rick Riordan is a great choice for this theme.
They are for somewhat younger readers but Goddess of Yesterday by Caroline B. Cooney or The Shadow Thieves by Anne Ursu would both be good!
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
Kendare Blake's Antigoddess trilogy as well as the Mythos Academy series
Gods Behaving Badly by Marie Phillips
Since I haven't read it yet and really want to I'm voting for the first book in the Kane Chronicles.
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor.... it is AMAZING!!!!!!
Would you say that the Daughter of Smoke and Bone deals with mythology? Well, it has fantasy creatures yes, but I wouldn't really connect it with mythology theme.
The Red Pyramid (first in the Kane Chronicles) by Rick Riordan or American Gods by Neil Gaiman.
I agree with the Rick Riordan books - preferbly the Percy Jackson/HOO ones (they're the only ones I have). Would the Cirque du Freak by Darren Shaun count as vampires are supposedly myth??? :)
I haven't read Percy Jackson yet, I think that would be fun to read!
I prefer HOO because i've already read the kane chronicles and percy jackson.
I'm ashamed to say I neither own nor have read any Rick Riordan books so I'm voting for Percy Jackson or The Kane Chronicles (#1 of either, or course) :)
Nymph by Tonya Alexandra! The first book in the Love Oracles series. An Australia author too!
The Kane Chronicles have been on my TBR for far too long. I'd love to read the first book!
I really like the American Gods idea. I also think the Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker would be really good.
I agree any mythology book by Rick Riordan would be great!! I still need to read the Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus series.
To throw a graphic novel in the mix - I think The Wicked + The Divine looks like a really fun read :)
I suggest The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper
I will second the vote for The Wicked and The Divine!
Half blood by Jennifer L Armenstrout
The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan! The first book in his Egyptian mythology series the Kane Chronicles.
The Goddess Test by Amiee Carter or The Kane Chronicles by Rick Riordan
Ooh, I actually own The Wicked + The Divine and would love to read it! :D
Another for Gospel of Loki! I have the paperback and its so gorgeous. I read the first little bit - just the cast of characters and it is so full of delicious snark!
The Percy Jackson series!!!! They are still sitting on my self un-read!!
