I don’t have a giveaway for you today, for Armchair BEA. Sorry. On the other hand, at Armchair BEA Central, there is a list of people who will have giveaways for you today. However, as a consolation prize, I do have links to reviews of five of the best books I’ve read (so far) this year.
Trash, by Andy Mulligan
The Last King of Texas, by Rick Riordan
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, by Betty Smith
The Disappearing Spoon, by Sean Kean
The True Meaning of Smekday, by Adam Rex
And as a bonus, five books I desperately want to get my hands on. Soon.
What’s on your list of favorite books this year?

Hi!
I have read any adult books by Riordan, I'll have to check them out. The Disappearing Spoon sounds really interesting. Have a great day!

Oh I'm very pleased to see The Disappearing Spoon on your list. The Hubster is a chemist so when I heard about this book I bought it. Good to hear it's one of your favorites.

I've never even heard of The Disappearing Spoon, but the title alone has me intrigued.
