![]() It’s not too long (less than 100 pages) and has lots of black and white illustrations. I’m reading this short chapter book aloud to Tally in the mornings while the girls are at school. I’m listening to the audio (which I often prefer for a novel in verse) and so far, so good.īook Buddies: Ivy Lost and Found by Cynthia Lord This snagged a Newbery Honor in January and I’ve been trying to read a few more books in verse this year, so this was a no-brainer to pick up. Iveliz Explains It All by Andrea Beatriz Arango (Jaclyn Moriarty is sister to Liane Moriarty who has written a ton of popular books). It was kind of a slow start to me and I’ll admit that journey books aren’t really my favorite, but at the halfway mark, I’m definitely getting more into this story about a young girl who is orphaned when her parents are killed by pirates and their will insists that she must go visit and deliver gifts to her father’s 10 sisters. This is what I’m reading aloud to my girls right now. The Extremely Inconvenient Adventures of Bronte Mettlestone by Jaclyn Moriarty I’m loving this western historical romance series and I’m definitely planning to read more Sarah Eden books. I blew through the first two books in this series this month (they’re both included on Audible Plus!) and then the newly released third book came up on my library holds really quickly. I’m LOVING it – so many good applications for family life! ![]() Then Bart used one of his Audible credits to buy it which meant, thanks to the magic of Amazon Family Sharing, it showed up in MY Audible account and I finally dived in. I’ve meant to read this for months since a friend raved about it and I’ve kept checking it in and out of the library. ![]() The Power of Moments: Why Certain Experiences Have Extraordinary Impact by Chip Heath and Dan Heath It doesn’t always happen like this, so I don’t take it for granted when it does! This has been one of my best reading periods in ages – I feel like I’m just flying through one good book after another and every time I finish one, there seems to be another good book queued up and ready to go.
