This week was a great week of reading! I got though a lot of awesome books and can’t wait to keep reading this week. I was able to read Dodger and Me by Jordan Sonnenblick. We’re excited to have Jordan visiting our library this summer and I’ll be offering a book…

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? 1/26/15
I had a busy week of reading, specifically this weekend as my doctor put me on “vocal rest” to hopefully heal my month-long battle with laryngitis. Because I couldn’t talk all weekend, I spent the majority of my time reading, which was a great way to keep up with my…
