Back to Reading

My book reading has slowed down a bit as I have been mustering through a few weeks of morning sickness - a blessing in disguise. During the next few months I will be reading several 5th-6th grade level story books/novels about ancient history (Egypt, Greek and Roman myths, myths from around the world, etc) with my daughter as she does her homeschool reading.

I am currently reading The Real Thomas Jefferson and plan to read George Washington's Sacred Fire by the end of the year (maybe). After reading Inkheart and Inkspell I am waiting to read the final book in the trilogy, Inkdeath - the only problem being that I can't seem to pry it out of my daughter's hand and will have to wait until she is done. Obviously there has not been a mass of book reviews on this blog in the last few months; between moving cross-country, starting homeschooling and then mustering through the first few weeks of a pregnancy it has been pretty crazy around here!

I couldn't bring myself to finish Inkspell... I think Funke's writing style is so boring! Let me know if you find anything really good and interesting for the younger reader. Bryant is having a hard time finding things he likes that are actually at his level.

Yeah! It's good your posting on this blog again. I've missed it. I have been reading A TON! I read all of the Inkheart books a few years back and I really liked them..so did Lydia. It's too bad you're not closer. I have the third book sitting on my bookshelf :)
