Beginnings

Welcome friends! I have started this entry in the global technosphere because I have been in love with books since the age of 2. Among the busy business of being a new teacher, this is my outlet for sharing thoughts on a love of reading a wide variety of books. My inspiration can be summed up with a yearbook quote from a teacher written when I was 8: "To the only girl at recess I see reading a book. Good for you!"
My blog title is quoted from a classmate who asked me this once. Believe it or not, I've also heard it as a teacher :D

It's Monday! What Are You Reading?


A weekly meme hosted by Sheila @ Book Journey.

Books Read This Week:  (1)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix- J.K. Rowling--loved it!  Will post review soon.

Reviews This Week:  (2)
Caught up on 2/3 reviews on books finished from the last couple of weeks:
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire- J.K. Rowling
The Giver- Lois Lowry

Currently Reading:  (3)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince- J.K. Rowling--I just can't get enough :D
The Gunslinger (Dark Tower series, #1)- Stephen King--I'm a bit stuck on this due to HP mania.  A different kind of King book.  I'm not entirely sure about it...
My Life- Bill Clinton--still!

Next to Read:
Probably Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and then I'll finally get around to another challenge book.

Have a great reading week :)

    I can just imagine that Harry Potter is more interesting than Bill Clinton!

    I'm dangerously close to starting my own HP reread... Also, I'm on book 5 in the Gunslinger series. Not my favorite Stephen King, but I hope to see the series through. So far book 3 was the best.
