Greetings all! Hope your reading has been coming along nicely. Looking forward to hearing what you all have been reading and what you thought of those reads. And we are welcoming Stephanie to the #middlegrademay fold! Hey Stephanie, glad you could join us.
This reminds me...
If you want to keep on spreading the word about #middlegrademay please do. There is still until Friday to join in.
Also, I am really appreciative of those already joining in. It was a last minute thing I planned and I am sure some of you are probably still not quite clear on how its working! Next year I think I will do this in March and get some tips for Jill at the Owl. She is not doing her usual March Middle Grade Madness so I will talk to her and see if I can fill her shoes....or fly like she can. Who knows, she may have someone else lined up to take over.
Anyhow. Enough from me. I had a crazy busy week last week (new job approaching, more on that soon). So I am just putting up a quick check in post and will be back with my reads later (3 books, two fantasy, one realistic).
Finally, I wish you all my best on your Memorial Day.
Ta for now and will check in later today!

thanks for the co-host offer! taking you up on that and will follow up in a future email.
DeleteBy my latest accounting, I've read about 30 MG books in May. Since my reading is out of sync with my blogging, I'm constantly confusing myself! Today, though, I have a solidly middle grade fantasy, The House of Secrets, reviewed at
ReplyDeletehttp://msyinglingreads.blogspot.com/2013/05/kids-in-kitchen-and-house-of-secrets.html. And I did mention Middle Grade May!
Thanks for the Middle Grade May mention! And...man, you are the queen of reading!
DeleteHi, Deb! I read three books this week. ABSOLUTE VALUE OF MIKE, FRINDLE and HIDING OUT AT THE PANCAKE PALACE, which I'm talking about today at My Brain on Books. That takes me up to 12 MG books in May.
ReplyDeleteNice on the reading! Heading over to see what you thought of each title you've mentioned. WOOT on 12 books!
DeleteAackk! I've had a crazy week and only managed to get half-way through School of Fear. Oh, well. Life happens! Yay to everyone else, though. :)

This went by too quickly. And just for good measure, I think this is the most emotionally charged review I posted for the challenge! LOL I look forward to more reading challenges but I'm grateful for learning about #middlegrademay just in time.
ReplyDeletehttp://tonettedelaluna.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/middlegrademay-check-in-week-4/ <-- my inner monologue spilt forth for your perusal.
Five books and hefty ones, at that. I believe I put the challenge in reading challenge. haha I'll stick around for MMGM mainly because you're all awesome.
Thanks again!
