A very "cute book" week for you. I enjoyed Flush, and well, you can never read Charlotte's Web enough times .... I never got past "The Bad Beginning" in the series, but I know that kids continue to eat those books up. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure whats the story of The Wright 3

I've read everything but Flush. Yay for Stupid Fast!

Charlotte's Web is one of my all time favorite books! Flush was good too! For some reason, I never got into The Series of Unfortunate Events books but hope you enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteAhh, this brings back memories! I read and loved all of these books (except The Wright 3 and Stupid Fast, of course) as a kid! Hope you enjoy all of them! :)
ReplyDeleteHow cool that your niece reads so that you can "steal" books from her! Hope you both enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHere's my IMM.
I've heard great things about Stupid Fast. And lol, you stole books from your niece. So cute, yet scandalous!
