I am about 3/4 of the way through "Elphie: A Wicked History". I like it very much - it's about the childhood of Elphaba, the wicked witch in Wizard of Oz. I would recommend it.

Currently reading Darkdawn by Jay Kristoff. I’m struggling through it only because I’ve already read the first two in the series and I feel like I need to finish it. It’s interesting, but kind of slow at times.

Currently reading Remember Me by Christopher Pike. I read this years ago but I can still feel how impressive it is despite already knowing what’s gonna happen next.

I'm currently reading Sunrise on the Reaping, the new Hunger Games book by Suzanne Collins, I'm loving how it connects with the story we already know, and the depth it adds to Haymitch's character.

I just started reading "Wicked", by Gregory Maguire. It's book 1 in a 4-part series. I'm enjoying it so far.

A tale of two cities by Charles Dickens. I'm halfway through the book so far, and I find it very well written, although I find it difficult at times as I'm not a native English speaker.

just started reading the ebook Star Wars Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire for my Kindle Fire just a few minutes ago. I wish more books like that would be made.

I still enjoy the old Essential Guide to Droids and Essential Guide to whatever else related to Star Wars

I am currently listening to the audiobook of “When Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” by Caitlin Doughty. Ive followed her on socials for a while and finally felt ready to pick up her books. I love it when authors narrate there own books.

A book I recently finished was Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green and I highly recommend it. It’s about how disease shapes society and relationships. It isn’t a book purely about disease and politics, it has fun facts and ends with hope. If you are looking for a new book, consider picking up this New York Times Bestseller

This is next on my TBR as my library just got it. I’m so excited to read about Haymitch’s story and I know that this book will make me cry

Latest Review: Bugs, Weeds, and Water by Evangeline Greene

Post by Rebecca Graf Kayne »

Yesterday at the pediatrician's office, I picked up the book Rita and Ralph's Rotten Day, by Carmen Agra Deedy, to read to my kids. It's the cutest children's book about two kids who meet in between their houses every day to play, but one day they have a fight. They deal with feelings of sadness, frustration, and learn to say sorry.
It was such a sweet (and accurate) book that I'm buying it for my kids.
