Permalink -- click for full blog post "Book Reviews Kids-Recent" Jul 3, 2010, Book BlogI'm a blogger, as well, and I started blogging about books two years ago. I keep count of all the books I read throughout the year, and I 'review' them (you can see the review system on each book blog). I just posted my mid-year favorites list for 2010. I mostly read young adult books (with a few middle grade thrown in). If you're interested in reading all the 'book reports', just click on the 'book reports' tag in the right hand tags' column.

May 25, 2010, Busy daysThis time of year tends to be quite busy. How can we keep our family active together in the midst of it all? Well, family reading is always a quick and easy place to start. I've recently added some sequels here to some enjoyable young adult urban fantasies (Melissa Marr, Aprilynne Pike, and Alyson Noel). Also, don't forget the joys of family photography -- I discovered a new site for digital cameras. The best news about May is that summer family camping is right around the corner!

We've all been reading like crazy this summer, and in all the fun, I haven't been logging them as well as I'd like -- but you can find all the new additions below, along with some of D's favorites on the blog link here.
...four great books. Two of them are found on the urban fantasy page (URL below) -- Shade and Raised by Wolves -- another, Are We There Yet? 
I've been enjoying some dystopic (otherwise known as science fiction) novels lately -- one, Lies, by Michael Grant, is the third in a series. The other, The Gardener, by S.A. Bodeen, is a stand-alone with a fascinating premise. Both are wonderful reads with intriguing scientific ideas and great tension.
