Waiting on Wednesday is sponspored by Breaking the Spine where we discuss books we are eagerly anticipating. I saw the ad for this in a recent Shelf Awareness newsletter and just keep forgetting or getting too busy to blog about it on Wednesdays. I’ve really enjoyed this series since I read the first one as […]
This book was actually not one I had intended to read. Don’t think it was even on my to read list. It was just a stripped cover book I’d picked up at the store to put on the bookshelf in my classroom for my students to read. Well, last week at school, I didn’t bring […]
I must say, reading all the YA books lately has kind of gotten me out of the mood of my chick lit books. Or else, maybe I don’t have as many that are as great as ones I’ve had in the past. This was an okay book. But it wasn’t one that I couldn’t put […]
Last night I found two really great books! I also have a few that I forgot to talk about in my last Hazards post, and I’m not even sure if I posted after I worked Saturday night either. Now the funny thing is that the two I found last night weren’t even in the store. […]

This entry will actually be a combination of both last Saturday and last night. I just was too busy to get Saturday night’s done. But both nights I found several books, and some of these I’m listing are ones that I had seen before, but forgot about, so my plan of keeping track this way […]
Yeah, this is a picture book, but it is about Einstein, and as I am a science teacher I am very excited that I was able to get a copy of it after emailing about an offer in the Shelf Awareness newsletter. It’s a very simple story for kids about Einstein, and yes, I teach […]
