It's Monday, What Are You Reading? June 27, 2016



Please visit the amazing blogs: Teach Mentor Texts and Unleashing Readers who host this terrific meme each week.

It's good to be back. I took a hiatus from blogging since early May! This was not intentional. The end of the year craziness, combined with my poorly planned timing of taking the exam for National Boards, made May-June exceptionally busy.   I am excited for summer and have been reading quite a bit. Here are a few I have enjoyed recently. Click on the covers to learn more about them.

  5. Some fantastic books on your list!! I've been seeing The Seventh Wish everywhere, unfortunately do to some controversy around its subject matter, so I'm very curious to read it for myself - Kate Messner is such a strong writer, I'm confident it will be great.

  6. Hhthe Seventh Wish is great, and there's nothing objectionable about it. In fact, the only thing I would change about it is the magical fish!

  7. Lily and dunkin is ready for me to pick up at the library. I enjoyed The Memory of Things and Upside Down Magic as well. I think The Seventh Wish has arrived at the school. I hope to read it over the summer.
