Gave up trying to read The Huntress. Made it 62% of the way through it before I just couldn't handle it anymore.
Last night I started reading Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman... so far so good - even if his writing style has taken a minute to get used to. I keep picturing the bad guys as being "The Gentlemen" from Buffy... not sure if this is accurate or not. We'll see.

I have about six books on the go right now. But one is fiction, short stories. I just thought I would throw that in, just in case Tawse thought I had no personality

I just read "Pets to the rescue, Brave Norman". It was a book sitting on the desk in the 4th grade class room I work in. It was about a dog who was adopted from the pound and went blind. He rescued a little girl who was drownding at the beach despite his blindness. It's a quick 30 page read with mostly pictures and large font, lol. It was a feel good little story and my eyes got a little misty. Hahaha! :-D

just finished drag king dreams by leslie feinberg
![]() ![]() Thirteen-year-old Hayaat is on a mission. She believes a handful of soil from her grandmother's ancestral home in Jerusalem will save her beloved Sitti Zeynab's life. The only problem is the impenetrable wall that divides the West Bank, as well as the checkpoints, the curfews, and Hayaat's best friend Samy, who is always a troublemaker. But luck is on their side. Hayaat and Samy have a curfew-free day to travel to Jerusalem. However, while their journey is only a few kilometres long, it may take a lifetime to complete. |

i absolutely loved where the streets had a name and would recommend it to anyone. abdel-fattah deals with the occupation in a way that's extremely humanizing and very real, though not heavy-handed or overly political. the book is written in the voice of a young girl and it's at a middle school reading level (possibly even younger), although some of the topics can get a bit emotional.
after i finished that i read accidents of nature, a book by harriet mcbryde johnson, who was a disability rights activist and lawyer. it was amazing ![]() ![]() |

okay, I admit I'm actually giddy over the upcoming release of the Hunger Games movie. Just ran across this image, can't resist posting.
