     I participated in the Bookish Playlist challenge.  This was the challenge:

"What's a song that always reminds you of a certain book?  Is it something the characters listen to?  Do the lyrics remind you of the plot?  Make a list of at least three songs and match them each with a book.  Participants could explain their reasoning in greater depth in form of blog or twitter thread, show pictures of the books and caption with the song titles in an Instagram post, or even make a playlist on Spotify or Youtube and share it.  
Thanks to Emma (@emmareadsthings ) for today's challenge."

     My answer was as follows.
Song: Dream On by Aerosmith
Book:  The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvator
Reason: I think Ronan Lynch would listen to this song.  Every time I hear it I think of The Dream Thieves.  

Song:  Entry Into the Great Hall/ The Banquet by John Williams
Book: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling
Reason:  Ever since I heard this song it reminded me of a magical place, and the start of Harry's magical journey.

Song: Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Book: Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Reason: This song is from the scene when Percy, Grover, and Annabeth are on their way to Hades.  I jam out and think about their quest every time.

     Bye for now-Lily Jayne.
