Firstborn child has transformed into an adult (gasp) and leapt from the nest, intent on spreading her wings far from my prying eyes – so I have no idea what she’s reading now, but I’m confident that she IS reading, and it’s probably something heavy.
Middle child,Ā has been working his way through James Patterson’s Maximum Ride novels, for an excruciatingly long time (imo) but hey, at least there is a book occasionally in his hand instead of a game controller wrapped in a slice of pizza.
Small One (I know she’s not small anymore I’m in denial leave me alone!) is the only person I know that actually enjoys reading on her phone screen (eugh!) and likes dramatic and/or funny web comics.Ā For school she was reading ‘The Giver’ by Lois Lowry, which she really enjoyed. She wants to read more to find out what happens to Gabe. Boxed set in her future?? š
School cramped her style a little by then assigning a book she had already read- ages ago! – “The Lightning Thief” by Rick Riordan – which is Book One of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. SO has read this entire series, and we had already moved on to his The Heroes of Olympus series, so this going back to the beginning kind of got under her skin. Especially being asked to predict what might happen next. It’s a good story though, so she’s not in a total sulk.
