Time flies. . .

How is it November already? I just got a box of books in the mail today--okay, well they're really books for John, but I want to dig in as soon as he's finished. We got the first set of Guardians of Ga'hoole by Kathryn Lasky which looks really fun. I have always loved owls, and these books have gotten good reviews. We also got the sequel to Saavy called Scumble. I wasn't bowled over by Saavy, but many of the students in the classroom were, so I'm going to give Ingrid Law another chance. Eleven by Patricia Reilly Giff and When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead are two of the best books that I have read in the last few months, so I bought copies for John's class. Hope you are finding great books to curl up with on these longer, darker nights.
