There are so many books out
there. And, I, like you have a list of
books I can’t wait to
read. In no order, I’d like to share a few of them with
you. Some have been patiently waiting for awhile, some have just out and some
are future presentations!
First, book three of The Secrets
of Wintercraft; Winterveil due in July
of this year. Shadowcry and Blackwatch start Kate Winters
adventures. Finding out that you can walk between the world of the living and
the world of the dead has many dangers. Especially when even your friends want
to use you for their own gains! (Ages 12 up).
We can follow that up with Terrible Thing That Happened to
Barnaby
by John Boyne, the author of The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Barnaby does not obey the law of gravity.
From Brazil to New York, Canada to Ireland, and even space, he meets all sorts
of different people, discovering he really is along the way. (Ages 10 up)
Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne is a debut novel. Six high school kids,
two eighth graders, and six little
kids are trapped together in a chain
superstore. Outside, disasters are tearing the world apart. Sky on Fire continues the adventures. (Ages 14
up).
And
last, but not least My Big, Fat Zombie Goldfish by Mo O’Hara. Recommended to me
by a
strong, precocious 6 year old, she tells me this would be good for ages 8
to 10 who like Captain Underpants. She hasn’t quite finished it yet, but
promises to give me a review of it soon! Until then, this is what the publisher
has to say: In this hilarious debut novel, the first in an
illustrated chapter book series, a budding evil scientist's experiment goes
horribly right by turning the family's new goldfish Frankie into a Big Fat
Zombie Goldfish! (I am sooo exited!) This is due "soon". So come to the store a preoreder a copy today!
You can find these, and other books to add to you must read list
at the Northshire Bookstore!
