What I read: This week I finished Into the Wilderness and started Kilmeny of the Orchard. I am always amazed at how many books L.M. Montgomery wrote that I had never heard of! Thank you Amie for lending this one to me:) Emma (15 years old) is reading The Little House on the Prairie series. Ben… Continue reading Weekly Recap (5.7.2020)

What I read: This week I finished Scarlet and started Into the Wilderness. I have read both before (numerous times) but wanted to return to two of my favorite books once again. Scarlet takes off almost exactly from where Gone with the Wind ends. Rhett has just left Scarlet and she is reeling… Continue reading Weekly Recap (5.1.2020)

What I read: This week I read Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library and started 11/22/63. (Yes, I have a very eclectic taste in books) Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library was a fun read. If you mixed together Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (except substituted in books, games, and technology for all of the candy)… Continue reading Weekly Recap (4.18.2020)

What I read: This week I read The Golem and the Jinni. (I was very lucky to find another great book to read on the library's e-book system!)

What I read: This week I read Far Far Away by Tom McNeal. First off I have to admit that this author is extremely, extremely talented. He somehow managed to make this modern day story feel like it was set in the medieval fairy tale era. I also loved how he used the ghost of… Continue reading Weekly Recap (4.6.2020)

What I read: This week I am reading The God of the Hive by Laurie R. King. This novel was the follow up to The Language of Bees that I read last week. I have never read a book that seemed more like a "Part Two" to the previous book before. The author cleverly made… Continue reading Weekly Recap (March 13, 2020)

What I read: This week I am reading The Language of Bees by Laurie King. I have enjoyed this book so much. The interesting thing about this series is that each book seems totally different. Some of the books I have loved and others I have skimmed through or just quit reading all together. A… Continue reading Weekly Recap (March 6, 2020)

What I read: This week I am reading The Game by Laurie R. King. Luckily my library has almost all of the books in this series, so I will be reading Ms. King's work for awhile.
