Well, I finished the 5 books of "The Books of Elsewhere" series!! It is one of the best kids series that I've ever read! I could not put them down, but when I had to, I couldn't wait to pick it back up to start reading again. I plan on reading the 1st book to my students along with my other favorite's, "Alex and the Ironic Gentleman" and "Timothy and the Dragon's Gate" by Adrienne Kress. Now, before school starts there is one more book I want to read. The book is called "Serafina and the Black Cloak". It is a new book by Asheville author, Robert Beatty. It debuted in July and has received rave reviews and has already made it on the New York Times Best-Seller list. It is a Mystery-Thriller about an unusual girl that secretly lives in the basement of the Biltmore Estate in 1899. I can't wait to start reading one more book before the school year begins:-)
