I actually didn’t pick this book to read as part of the 2011 Debut Author Challenge sponsored by Kristi over at The Story Siren. I had chosed to read So Shelly by Ty Roth. However, that book just didn’t catch me. Sure, I only got to page 20, but I’ve decided there are so many […]
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. It is a way to highlight those books for which we can’t wait for their publication date. This week I choose The Slayer Chronicles by Heather Brewer. Heather Brewer is the author of the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod, which I just […]
Well, I wanted to go back and read my review of Eighth Grade Bites, the first in this series, but I can’t find it on my blog. So it’s possible I read this back when I was still blogging on either Live Journal or My Space. Neither of which I really use anymore. I remember […]
So I worked 2nd floor again last night, and saw several new books. One I didn’t get a chance to write down before the name slipped my mind close to when we were getting ready to close. So I have two to talk about. First off I want to mention that one of the books […]
Wow! I haven’t gotten to blog in forever! Hate being so busy. Finally got to finish this book when we got it into the store and I was able to check it out. When I first started reading it, I wasn’t sure if I would like it, it didn’t sound like as good of a […]

So I found this on another blog I follow and thought it would be fun to do as well. It’s sponsored by Jennifer at Crazy-For-Books.com. It’s a place for bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word. And each week there is a question, and here is today’s question: What […]
I got this book as an advanced reader’s copy back in October, right before the author was coming to our bookstore to do a signing. I didn’t get to go to the signing because it was right when our parent teacher conferences are, so didn’t feel the urge to pick it up and get it […]
This is the sequel to The Maze Runner, that I read as an ARC a while back. So, there will be some spoilers if you have not yet read The Maze Runner. Anyway, in this book, all the Gladers, as they call themselves are in the dorms where their rescuers have taken them. Our main […]
Now, it’s been awhile since I read Hush, Hush, the first book in this series. Part of the reason it has been so long is because I read that as an ARC, and then when this came out, I was busy reading for other things, like the Gateway Award. But finally, still with my borrowed […]
