What Are You Reading: September 12, 2011: 09/12/11
This week I've been busy with homework. Three-quarters of what I read this week was in the form of children's picture books. With the exception of Home of the Brave by Allen Say, all of these picture books I read with my children. The Home of the Brave I read at my internship as I was trying to figure out how best to catalog it. I didn't give up on any books this week. I am struggling a bit with Dandelion Fire by N. D. Wilson. It is so different in tone from 100 Cupboards that I'm not sure what to make of it. I started listening to Ida B. by Katherine Hannigan. The voice actress is doing a wonderful job reading the book. I still want to start The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff. I also want to start Paranormalcy by Kiersten White.

You did a great job! I haven't finished a single book last week because exams are taking more time than I thought. Can't wait for my fall routine to have more time to read. Comment #2: Monday, September 12, 21:33:24 Pussreboots I understand. I suspect though that my kids would still want story time so I'd get some reading done during exam time. Comment #3: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 03:17:09 Oh! Some great picture books, including Cat the Cat!!! It's one of our absolute favorites, in fact we read it tonight. Love Mo Willems! :o) Hope you have a fabulous reading week and if you get a second stop my to see what I've been reading at There's A Book! :) Comment #4: Monday, September 12, 21:35:31 Pussreboots Bloggers either seem to love Cat the Cat or hate it. We're in the love category. It was a great place for Harriet to start her reading. Comment #6: Monday, September 12, 21:41:21 Pussreboots Thank you. Comment #7: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 13:04:57 The Replacement has been on my radar for awhile...maybe I'll get around to it soon. Thanks for visiting my blog. Comment #8: Monday, September 12, 21:45:30 Pussreboots I've wanted to read The Replacement since I saw the cover art.

Comment #11: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 13:33:47 I actually haven't heard of a lot of these, but they sound really good. Twilight of the Gods seems pretty intriguing. Happy Reading! Comment #12: Monday, September 12, 21:57:33 Pussreboots Twilight of the Gods is the second in the series. It's good so far. Comment #14: Monday, September 12, 21:59:35 Pussreboots Thank you.

Comment #17: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 15:39:11 My Terry Brooks period is over, but long ago, I read a lot of the Shannara books. Enjoy your selection this week! Comment #18: Monday, September 12, 22:04:53 Pussreboots I haven't been tempted to read the Shannara books but I like his Landover series. Comment #19: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 16:52:44 I just loved Ida B! I still need to start Rick Riordan's new series...love him. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Comment #20: Monday, September 12, 22:07:05 Pussreboots Ida B. is excellent. The actress reading the book is really bringing her to life. Comment #21: Monday, September, 12, 2011 at 19:54:27 I keep eying the cover of The Replacement, but I haven't bought it yet! Which reminds me — I need to check again and see if my library has gotten it in. Enjoy your week! Comment #22: Monday, September 12, 22:10:59 Pussreboots I happened to see a very nice copy of The Replacement at Half Price Books. Otherwise I'd be waiting for my library to get a copy too. Comment #23: Tuesday, September, 13, 2011 at 03:25:10 a new landover book? I'm very glad you stopped by but don't think my bank account will thank you! :) Comment #24: Friday, September 16, 2011 at 22:37:32 Pussreboots Yes. The new Landover novel was published last year. I apologize for the damage done to your bank account. Comment #25: Tuesday, September, 13, 2011 at 10:25:32 I wasn't big fan of The Replacement, I was a little disappointed with it, but I loved Paranormalcy, it's just so much fun :) Happy reading & have a great week! Comment #26: Friday, September 16, 2011 at 22:39:02 Pussreboots Hopefully I will get to both books this coming week. There's always something getting in the way. Grrr! Comment #27: Tuesday, September, 13, 2011 at 14:07:08 Oh, lots and lots of books. I hope you enjoy them all. The Thorn of Fire has me intrigued. Comment #28: Friday, September 16, 2011 at 22:41:40 Pussreboots Poor Throne of Fire is sitting unloved under my bed. Library books got in the way. Comment #29: Tuesday, September, 13, 2011 at 17:58:06 Children, homework, internship - and you still read all of these? Great job! Have a fantastic week! Comment #30: Friday, September 16, 2011 at 22:43:25 Pussreboots The picture books I read at night with my kids. I listen to an audio book while I'm driving to and from my internship. I also read a few pages before bed each night.
