  3. Great mailbox and your assistant is adorable. Lots of the books you got are already on my TBR stack. I am still trying to decide if I want to buy Amy & Roger's Epic Detour or just add it to my next HS Media Center book order. Happy reading!

  11. Ooh, you've got some great reading coming up.

    For me I have to have pictures...otherwise I just glaze over. My one problem with ebooks is not recognizing that I've read something because I don't see the cover enough.

  31. I'm really wishing for Amy and Roger's Epic Adventure, can't wait to hear what you think! Looks like you had a great week! And what a cutie pie you have!

    As for what I like for IMM. I like a picture, though it doesn't have to be a picture of the actual book. I mean, it can just be taken off the computer. Links are fine, but not necessary.

  40. Man, that's a huge number of books! Will your daughter -- who's adorable, by the way -- give you the space to read them, or is she as much of a time suck as my kids were at that age?

  48. Thanks for all the compliments on Katie!!
    I have posted a few reviews already (Jekel loves hyde, gimme a call, Cold hands, warm heart, and Dirty little secrets). I am now on Amy and Roger- about 1/3 way through, and loving it so far.
    @Trisha- I emailed you but if anyone else is curious about Booksmart- it is a local used bookstore (Raleigh nc)
    @Bella- I couldn’t get into Nightlight either. I tried, but….
    @Tv and book addict—She LOVES elmo! He is all over the house.
    @asamum LOL! Wake county is pretty good.
    @Susan- I read a lot while she watches Elmo, napping and after her bedtime :D Not much while she is playing though..
    @Kelli- a lot different from Jessica’s Guide, but I still liked it a lot.

  49. Your daughter is adorable! Seems like she'll also be a book lover :D
    I read and loved both Dirty Little Secrets and The Secret Year. I hope you'll enjoy them as much as I did!
    And Jeckel Loves Hyde is on my wish list.
    Have fun with your new books :)
