Top Ten Tuesday: Spooky Middle Grade Titles
This week’s theme is spooky, scary books, a genre, I admit, is not one that I read that often. I’m not a huge fan of spooky books, tv shows, and movies, so it was honestly difficult to come up with ten titles that I’ve read recently! I focused on middle grade…

This week’s theme is a look at the best villains in books. I read a lot of realistic fiction and there’s always a villain, but it isn’t always a person (although there are a fair number of mean girls!) it’s often a theme or social issue. So, rather than focus…

Top Ten Tuesday: Longest Books I’ve Ever Read
I’m not a HUGE fantasy reader, which is where a lot of those really long titles are, but I’ve created a list of books that are all close to or over 500 pages (which, I think, is still a lot!). Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling…

Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I’d Like to Meet
I’ve been blessed to meet a number of authors and illustrators in my career at conferences, book festivals and expos. But a few who I would love to meet (and haven’t yet) include the authors below. I chose my list based on the titles they’ve published (which I’ve loved), interviews…

What’s New? Literacious Updates and Changes
I started this blog eight years ago with, I think, my first post at the very tail-end of 2010. Since then I’ve gained (many) more followers, found my voice and better figured out where I see this blog going in the future. I hope by now, you’ll see it’s been…
