Library Time 48

Library Time - Healthy Simplicity

Right now I feel like I’m swamped in books to read. I’m previewing a book for Eva-Joy. Noah has one he wants me to preview for him. I was given to books about/by Louis Zamperini (the man from Unbroken) that I want to read. I have a several books I borrowed from the library. I’m in the middle of one from the library called Running the Books: The Adventures of an Accidental Prison Librarian by Avi Steinberg. It is a fascinating memoir of a man who was the librarian for a prison. I’ve read several books by librarians about their job. Does that make me nerdy that I find books about librarians extremely interesting?

16-year-old daughter – To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I know this was a re-read for her. She wrote a review of the book on her blog. You can find it here.

14-year-old son – The Maze Runner by James Dashner. A group of boys stuck in a large clearing surrounded by a maze that changes every night. How will they ever find the way out?

12-year-old son – The Maze Runner – You can’t keep a good book down in our house.

10-year-old daughter – Assassin by Grace Cavendish. This is part of a series of books that take place in Queen Elizabeth I’s court. Grace is a lady-in-waiting to the queen who relies on Grace to help her figure out the intrigues that go on at the Court.

9-year-old daughter – Ready to Wear (Sew Zoey) by Chloe Taylor. This is a series of books about a middle school girl who enjoys sewing her own clothes and starts a blog about her sewing adventures.

7-year-old son – Micah’s immediate response when I asked him what he read this week was – “Lego instruction books”. ☺ He was given a new set for his birthday so he’s been busy putting it together over and over again. So I said that could stand for his book this week.

3-year-old son – The Christmas Day Kitten by James Herriot. James Herriot wrote a series of children’s stories based on stories from his books for adults. They are all beautifully illustrated. We bought a “treasury” book that includes all of the children’s stories.

    I looked up that book you’re reading when I saw it on your list of things you’re doing right now. Looks very interesting!
    I’ll have to look up Maze Runner – would Genevieve like it?
    Funny your girls are reading the sewing ones – I found those either on Kindle or at our library for Genevieve and she LOVES them 😉
