For C:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5), by J. K. Rowling — this is the audio book; we discovered with Inkheart, that C really likes listening to long books in audio form. We told her she could watch the Order of the Phoenix movie if she read the book…she’s very excited.
Thora and the Green Sea-unicorn, by Gillian Johnson
For M:
Chronicles of Faerie: The Hunter’s Moon (The Chronicles of Faerie), by O. R. Melling — we discovered that the book she picked up last week was the third in a series. Well, of course we had to get the other two!
Chronicles of Faerie: The Summer King (The Chronicles of Faerie), by O. R. Melling
Long May She Reign, by Ellen Emmerson White — Help! Is this the first in a series? Or a later one? We can’t tell.
Flavor of the Week, by Tucker Shaw
Chalice, by Robin McKinley
For me:
Mark Twain: The Gilded Age and Later Novels: The Gilded Age / The American Claimant / Tom Sawyer Abroad / Tom Sawyer, Detective / No. 44, The Mysterious Stranger (Library of America), by Mark Twain. Lest you get all intimidated: I’m only planning on reading The Guilded Age, but this was the only copy in at the library.
The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate, by Jacqueline Kelly
The roundup is either at Reading Adventures or A Striped Armchair.
*Ones that M eventually read.
**Picture books we really liked.
