It’s been cold and windy and rainy the past couple of days (I’m not complaining; it’s not snow!), and so we’ve actually spent quite a bit of time reading. It’s been quite lovely to curl up with a good book (or three).

As for the girls, this is what’s been on their plate. Joelle Charbonneau is coming to the store tomorrow, and in preparation, I read this:

C heard me talking about it, picked it up, and basically devoured it. She asked for the other two, which I picked up at the library yesterday. She’s quite intrigued by this series.

A has been working on book reports, and doesn’t have much time for pleasure reading. (Well, she does, but she’s choosing to watch the entirety of Psych, so there’s that.) The next report is on myths and legends, so she picked this:

I hope she likes it.

As for K, her teacher told her that she needs to quit reading “comic books” (a fact that made me angry when she came home and told me. Obviously, that teacher needs to be educated about the benefits of graphic novels. Sheesh!), so we went to the library to find some longer books. We picked out a dozen for her to look through and she came home with these four.

Hopefully, she’ll find one that she likes and that will satisfy her teacher’s request. (grumble)

What are you planning on reading this month?
