I know what you're thinking. So she's back to blogging her TBR list, huh? She really expects to catch up now when she's only up to Book #14? A valid point, that. And I'm the first to admit, I may not get through the whole list. But I continue trying.
Next up! : Spellbound (Dial, 2011) is the second book in the middle-grade fantasy series The Books of Elsewhere by Jacqueline West. The first book, The Shadows (Dial, 2010), was so good that I can't believe it's taken me this long to read Book 2. But I'm like that sometimes. This book belongs in one of my favorite genres: stories that take place in an ordinary world where extraordinary things happen.
“The Books of Elsewhere is a great series for young readers who are interested in the world of spells, witches, potions and magic—plenty of fun, action and thrills.” --Examiner.com
“Middle grade writing as it should be.” --Minneapolis Star Tribune
Beautiful writing, magic, and a spunky heroine. So, are you in?
That's right: I've committed to reading all the books on my TBR Shelf this year--and blogging them! Click here to read the reviews I've posted so far.
I admire your tenacity, but every time I try to do this, I hear of a bunch of new books that need to be on my TBR list! I'm always trying, but I hardly make a dent. (sigh)
ReplyDeleteI'm shooting for one year at a time, Rosi. I've added books to my list and even (*sigh*) bought some, but at least I'm whittling them down. I do respond to deadlines, so I'm reading way more this year than I have in a long time.
